Epitaxial growth of Si thin films with hexagonal close-packed structures on metal substrates

et al.

Abstract: We have studied the epitaxial growth of Si thin films on the Cd(0001) surface using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. When deposited at low temperatures (100 K), Si atoms form dendritic islands with triangular shapes, indicating the existence of anisotropic edge diffusion in the process of Si film growth. After annealing to elevated temperatures, the triangular dendritic Si islands become hexagonal compact islands. Moreover, the 2D Si islands located on two different substrate terraces exhibit dif… Show more
