摘要
Structurally perfect, single-crystal silicon layers have been grown on (1102) sapphire by sublimation-source molecular beam epitaxy. Electron and x-ray diffraction data demonstrate that silicon-on-sapphire epitaxy occurs at substrate temperatures from 550 to 850 degrees C. As the thickness of the layers decreases from 1.0 to 0.2 mu m, their structural perfection degrades. In the layers grown at 600 degrees C, the density of nucleation sites in the initial stages of growth is similar or equal to 5 x 109 cm(-2).
