Abstract

Epitaxial thin films of the semiconducting transition metal silicide, beta-FeSi2, were grown on (001) silicon wafers. The observed matching face relationship is FeSi2 (100)/Si(001), with the azimuthal orientation being FeSi2 [010]
Si〈110〉. This heteroepitaxial relationship has acommon unit mesh of 59 Å2 area, with a mismatch of 2.1%. There is a strong tendency toward island formation within this heteroepitaxial system.
