Abstract
Aluminum has been deposited by chemical vapor deposition from dimethyl alum inum hydride onto silicon. Deposition conditions were chosen such that the deposition was selective onto silicon with respect to silicon dioxide. The crystal orientation of the nuclei has been studied. It is shown that on Si( 100) the preferred mode of growth for the aluminum nuclei is Al(111). (C) 1 998 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
