We have investigated a self-assembly process for patterning epitaxial CoSi nanowires using local oxidation 2 of silicides (LOCOSI). This involves single-crystalline, epitaxial CoSi grown on Si(100) by molecular beam 2 allotaxy (MBA). A mask consisting of 20 nm SiO and 400 nm Si N , deposited by plas

โฆ Synopsis
A self-assembly nanopatterning method for epitaxial-CoSi layers has been developed and investigated. It is 2 based on anisotropic diffusion of Co / Si atoms in a stress field during rapid thermal oxidation. The stress field is generated by a patterned trench mask consisting of 20 nm SiO and 300 nm Si N . Single-crystalline CoSi 2 3 4 2 layers with a thickness of 20 nm grown by molecular beam allotaxy (MBA) on Si(100) substrates were patterned using this technique. Uniform gaps or uniform CoSi wires with a feature size of 80 nm have been 2 fabricated by using different stress fields which are created by different trench widths.
