Abstract

Thanks to advances in ultra-high vacuum technology, it has recently become possible to realize epitaxial semiconductor/metal/semiconductor (SMS) structures [1, 2] using a Si/CoSi2/Si sandwich. The rather small lattice mismatch (~ 1.2%) between Si and CoSi2 crystals as well as their similar cubic structures allows the production of monocrystalline Si/CoSi2 and Si/CoSi2/Si heterostructures. These SMS structures open the way to promising ultra-low base resistance devices for millimeter wave applications.
