โฆ Synopsis
High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) in conjunction with auto-correlation function (ACF) analysis was utilized to determine the structure of the amorphous TiSi x layer formed in the initial stage prior to the formation of crystalline silicides. Enhanced formation of C54-TiSi 2 on (0 0 1) Si by tensile stress and/or high-temperature sputtering was found. The present work strongly suggested that the presence of a high density of silicide crystallites in the amorphous TiSi x layer leads to the favorable TiSi 2 formation.

The properties of the cross-correlation function of the excitation and response of a linear system are derived. In particular the cross-correlation function is examined when the force applied to the system is one of limited frequency bandwidth since in practice purely impulsive or random forces are
