Popis: | Under circumstances in Zone-Melt-Recrystallization (ZMR) of Si-on-Insulator (SOI) structures where radiative heat loss is significant, the ∼50% decrease in emissivity when Si melts destabilizes the Si molten zone. We have demonstrated this both experimentally using a slowly scanned e-beam line source and numerically with a finite-element computational simulation. The resulting instability narrows the process window and tightens requirements on beam control and background heating uniformity, both for e-beam ZMR systems and optically-coupled systems such as a graphite strip heater. |
