Abstract

The variations in the composition and structure of CoSi2/Si(111) surface layers under Ar+ ion bombardment with subsequent annealing has been studied. It has been demonstrated that nanocluster phases enriched with Si atoms form on the CoSi2 surface at low doses D ≤ 1015 cm–2, and a pure Si nanofilm forms at high doses.
