Abstract:Subject classification: 73.30.+y; 73.50.Dn; 73.61.Jc; S1.61 Ultrathin (0.6-3.7 nm) IrSi films are fabricated by electron beam evaporation of iridium metal onto n-type silicon (100) substrates and subsequent silicide formation at 500 C. The sheet resistivity is measured at various temperatures in the range from 15 to 300 K. The polycrystalline c-IrSi films which form for a film thickness in excess of 8 nm show a metal-like behaviour of the resistivity. Ultrathin IrSi films of thickness less than 4 nm show an an… Show more
