Metastable ultrathin crystal in thermally grown SiO2 film on Si substrate
A silicon dioxide film on a silicon substrate is the most essential element in semiconductor devices and various advanced materials. We have elucidated the atomic structure of SiO2 films using low-dose scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). We have visualized a metastable crystalline SiO2...
