摘要
Titanium films of 35 nm thickness are deposited on Si(001) by direct current magnetron sputtering. Rapid thermal annealing (RTA) in nitrogen atmosphere is performed on the films for 20 s at 670 degrees C. The residual titanium is etched oft, with a solution of H2O2 : NH4OH : H2O (1:1:5). A second RTA at 900 degrees C for 10 s is applied again. The result is a C54 phase of TiSi2 of 65 nm thickness. By means of X-ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscopy and superlattice mismatch calculation,two epitaxial relationships: (004)(C54)//(001)(Si), [11 3 0](C54)//[110](Si) and (311)(C54)//(001)(Si), [2 (7) over bar 1](C54)//[110](Si) are established.
