The silicides CoSi2 and NiSi2 are both metallic with the fee flourite structure and lattice constants which are close to silicon (1.2% and 0.6% smaller at room temperature respectively) Consequently epitaxial cobalt and nickel disilicide can be grown on silicon. If these layers are formed by ultra high vacuum (UHV) deposition (also known as molecular beam epitaxy or MBE) their thickness can be controlled to within a few monolayers. Such ultrathin metal/silicon systems have many potential applications: for example electronic devices based on ballistic transport. They also provide a model system to study the properties of heterointerfaces. In this work we will discuss results obtained using in situ and ex situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM).In situ TEM is suited to the study of MBE growth for several reasons. It offers high spatial resolution and the ability to penetrate many monolayers of material. This is in contrast to the techniques which are usually employed for in situ measurements in MBE, for example low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED), which are both sensitive to only a few monolayers at the surface.

AbstractEpitaxial GaN grown by MBE has been characterised using the combined techniques of scanning electron microscopy / cathodoluminescence, reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED), and conventional transmission electron microscopy. Variations in spatial and spectral distributions of luminescence can arise due to embedded cubic inclusions within the hexagonal GaN matrix. The strong effect of doping on the crystallinity of the GaN deposit is illustrated, as determined by RHEED in a TEM.

AbstractThin Nb films were grown by MBE in a UHV chamber at two different temperatures (50°C and 950°C) on the (110) surface of TiO2 (rutile).At a growth temperature of 50°C, reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) revealed epitaxial growth of Nb on rutile: (110)[001] TiO2 ¦¦ (100)[001] Nb. In addition, investigations with Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) revealed that a chemical reaction took place between the Nb overlayer and the TiO2 substrate at the initial growth stage. A 2 nm thick reaction layer at the Nb/TiO2 interface has been identified by means of conventional transmission electron microscopy (CTEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM).At a substrate temperature of 950°C, during growth, the Nb film was oxidized completely, and NbO2 grew epitaxially on TiO2. The structure and the chemical composition of the overlayers have been investigated by RHEED, AES, CTEM and HRTEM. Furthermore, it was determined that the reaction of Nb with TiO2 is governed by the defect structure of the TiO2 and the relative oxygen affinities of Nb and TiO2.
