Abstract

This paper reports upon a new technique for the formation of epitaxial Pd2Si on (100) silicon using thin predeposited titanium layers. Improvements in the quality of epitaxy in Pd2Si on {111} silicon by this technique will also be shown. A preliminary model for the formation of epitaxy will be given. Discrepancies between this model and results in the literature will be discussed and experiments suggested to resolve the uncertainties.
