摘要
Low energy oxygen implantation during Si molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) allows the formation of highly-oriented Si nanocrystal dots (NCDs) suspended in SiO2. Transmission electron microscopy reveals the unusual facet morphology of NCD while the spontaneous orientation of the crystal axis of NCD toward [100] is clearly observed. well-developed {100} and {111} facets are characterized by nearly perfect Si/SiO2 interfaces. Compelling evidence is found for the epitaxial origin of NCD inherited from the parental two-dimensional Si slabs.
