Hyperthermal (1-10 eV) cobalt deposition on Si(100)

Abstract

Cobalt atoms with enhanced kinetic energy (0-10 eV) are deposited on room temperature Si(100) and compared to thermal cobalt deposition. Growth is monitored with Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED). At low coverages, δ,2ML, thermal deposition measurements agree with previous work where uptake at surface sites occurs up to approximately equal to} 0.5 ML, followed by filling subsurface sites. Auger data suggests that hyperthermal deposition occurs by direct subsurface adsorption.
