Directionally solidified Si/TaSi2 eutectic composites for the development of electronic devices (e.g. photodiodes and field-emission cathodes) were made using a Czochralski growth technique. High quality epitaxial growth of silicon on the eutectic composite substrates requires a clean silicon substrate surface prior to the growth process. Hence a preepitaxial surface cleaning step is highly desirable. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of surface cleaning methods on the epilayer/substrate interface and the characterization of silicon epilayers grown on Si/TaSi2 substrates by TEM.Wafers were cut normal to the <111> growth axis of the silicon matrix from an approximately 1 cm diameter Si/TaSi2 composite boule. Four pre-treatments were employed to remove native oxide and other contaminants: 1) No treatment, 2) HF only; 3) HC1 only; and 4) both HF and HCl. The cross-sectional specimens for TEM study were prepared by cutting the bulk sample into sheets perpendicular to the TaSi2 fiber axes. The material was then prepared in the usual manner to produce samples having a thickness of 10μm. The final step was ion milling in Ar+ until breakthrough occurred. The TEM samples were then analyzed at 120 keV using the Philips EM400T.

ABSTRACTIn the Czochralski growth of single crystals from large melts, fluid flow phenomena have a major effect on interface shape, growth striations, defect density and the length of crystals which can be grown from a melt of given volume and thermal geometry. Because of the technical difficulties encountered in making direct measurements in molten oxides, simulation experiments have been extensively utilized to gain insight into melt behavior.Both temperature profile and flow geometry results from simulation experiments are discussed. This data is supported by direct melt observations and results from the characterization of grown crystals. When reviewed together, this information offers new insights into the complex behavior of Czochralski growth processes, including the role of thermal gradients, crystal rotation, and surface tension driven (Marangoni) convection.
