摘要
Epitaxial growth of CeO2(001) thin films on Si(001) substrates was achieved by electron beam evaporation. Reflection high-energy electron diffraction and cross-sectional high-resolution transmission electron microscopy established the formation of an epitaxial CeO2(001)/Si(001) structure with a cube-on-cube configuration. The epitaxial structure had to be formed at a temperature below 200 degreesC with a Si(001)-2x1, 1x2 reconstructed surface, and it could be formed even at room temperature. In order to improve the crystallinity, homoepitaxial growth conditions at a higher temperature with a high oxygen flow rate were also investigated. Homoepitaxy of ceria grown on a 5-nm-thick initial layer was demonstrated by theta /2 theta -scan and phi -scan of x-ray diffraction. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.
