Abstract
An in situ transmission electron microscopy study of the amorphous-to- crystalline transformation of Al2O3 films on a silicon substrate has b een carried out. It is found that a critical electron-beam dose rate i s required for the transformation to be observed. The possible effect of the silicon substrate on the growth of the Al2O3 crystallites is al so discussed.
