    摘要: A method for crystallizing an amorphous multicomponent ionic compound comprises applying an external stimulus to a layer of an amorphous multicomponent ionic compound, the layer in contact with an amorphous surface of a deposition substrate at a first interface and optionally, the layer in contact with a crystalline surface at a second interface, wherein the external stimulus induces an amorphous-to-crystalline phase transformation, thereby crystallizing the layer to provide a crystalline multicomponent ionic compound, wherein the external stimulus and the crystallization are carried out at a temperature below the melting temperature of the amorphous multicomponent ionic compound. If the layer is in contact with the crystalline surface at the second interface, the temperature is further selected to achieve crystallization from the crystalline surface via solid phase epitaxial (SPE) growth without nucleation.

    摘要: A method for clonal-growth of a single-crystal metal, including: using copper as an example, placing an existing small-sized single-crystal copper foil with a plane of any index on a copper foil that needs to be single-crystallized, and performing annealing to obtain, by cloning, a large-area (in meters) single-crystal copper foil with the same surface index as that of the parent facet. The method solves the difficult problem of large-area single-crystal copper foil preparation. By performing annealing, a parent single-crystal copper foil with a very small size (˜0.25 cm2) can be cloned to produce a large-area (˜700 cm2) single-crystal copper foil, which is an increase in area of about 3000 times.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a method and system for fabricating a semiconductor device. The method and system of the present disclosure, after obtaining the polysilicon layer, first form the protective oxide layer on the surface of the polysilicon layer, and then etch the protective oxide layer and the protrusions on the surface of the polysilicon layer with the buffered oxide etchant based on controllability of the buffered oxide etchant, thereby reducing the protrusions on the surface of the polysilicon layer, while well protecting the surface of the polysilicon layer. Therefore, the technical problem of surface roughness in the existing polysilicon layers is solved.
