Structure changes in nickel on silicon nano-layers under vacuum ultraviolet irradiation

The structure changes in nickel-on-silicon systems due to vacuum ultraviolet irradiation (VUV) have been studied using the X-ray reflectometry. An ultra-thin (1 to 2 nm) layer (of the density ρ = 3.2 to 3.4 g/cm³ at VUV wavelength λ = 120 nm and 2.1 to 2.6 g/cm³ at λ = 180 nm) has been revealed...

Zusammenfassung:The structure changes in nickel-on-silicon systems due to vacuum ultraviolet irradiation (VUV) have been studied using the X-ray reflectometry. An ultra-thin (1 to 2 nm) layer (of the density ρ = 3.2 to 3.4 g/cm³ at VUV wavelength λ = 120 nm and 2.1 to 2.6 g/cm³ at λ = 180 nm) has been revealed to be formed at the nickel film surface under irradiation. The nickel films themselves remain unchanged both in thickness and density after a short-time VUV irradiation. It has been supposed that the surface layer formation is a result of the VUV interaction with the silicon substrate, silicon nitride Si₃N₄ being formed at λ = 120 nm while oxide SiOₓ at λ = 180 nm.
