Abstract

Explosive crystallisation induced by an electron beam and by a CW Ar+ laser operating in fast scanning mode is observed for the first time on amorphized silicon layers created by implantation on either polycrystalline films deposited on Si02 or single crystal silicon substrates. The grain structure in the explosive crescents is studied by preferential chemical etching in conjunction with Nomarski optical microscopy, SEM and TEM. The results are similar to the so-called solid-phase explosive crystallization previously observed in a-Si films deposited on glass substrates.
