説明
<jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title><jats:p>We have demonstrated the high energy (MeV) electron beam irradiation effects on lateral solid phase epitaxy (L-SPE) of Si-on-insulator (SOI). Thinned samples were set on a hot stage in a 2 MeV electron microscope and L-SPE growth under 2 MeV electron irradiation conditions was monitored in-situ by using the same microscope. L-SPE growth rate for the irradiation dose of 10<jats:sup>21</jats:sup> cm<jats:sup>−2</jats:sup> was enhanced by about 1.5 times greater than that under unirradiated condition. For electron beam irradiation doses higher than about 10<jats:sup>23</jats:sup> cm<jats:sup>−2</jats:sup>, L-SPE growth was suppressed. Displacement of Si atoms, contamination effect and ionization effect are discussed as causes for the growth rate retardation and enhancement of L-SPE by electron beam irradiation.</jats:p>
