  • Depositing $CaF_2$[0.6% lattice-mismatch] on the Si(001)-$4^{\circ}$ off surface [composed of a single (001) domain with regularly-arrayed double-layer DB steps and located between (1 1 19) and (1 1 21)] held at $700^{\circ}C$, $CaF_2$ molecules are preferentially adsorbed on the dimers and dissociated to Ca and F atoms. Dissociated Ca atoms form a silicide layer of a $2{\times}3$ structure on the (001) terrace, while F atoms are desorbed from the surface. Once the terrace is covered with a calcium silicide layer, CaF starts to be adsorbed selectively on the steps, as shown in Fig. (a). With $CaF_2$ deposition exceeding 1 ML, the (1 1 17) surface having 1-D $CaF_2$ nanodots are formed as shown in Fig. (b). By the present STM study, it has been clearly disclosed that the calcium silicide interfacial layer is preformed prior to adsorption of $CaF_2$ on vicinal Si(001) surface.

  • From the combined studies of STM and synchrotron photoemission, it has been found that a $CaF_2$ molecule is dissociated to Ca and F atoms on the $Si(114)-2{\times}1$ held at $500^{\circ}C$ at the initial adsorption stage. The Ca atoms form isolated and unique shapes of silicide molecules as shown in Fig. (a), while the F atoms are desorbed from the surface. On the other hand, beyond a $CaF_2$ coverage of 0.3 monolayer, as shown in Fig. (b), in addition to these silicide molecules, a 1-D facet [composed of (113) and (115) faces] adjacent to an etch pit has been observed, and F atoms are also detected from photoemission. These results imply that F atoms act as an etchant on Si(114) and CaF is adsorbed selectively on the (113) face of this facet. From the present studies, it has been concluded that, an insulating $CaF_2$ layer like that on Si(111) cannot be formed on Si(114), but a CaF-decorated nanofacet with a high aspect-ratio can be grown.

  • The purpose of this study lies in analyzing the characteristics of the carbonized textile fabrics and to know the carbonizing mechanism. Samples were Jiyo excavated from the grave of Mrs. Hansan Lee as the wife of Jinju Kang at Daeduk-gu, Daejon, and black fragements assumed as of the outside material of cotton skirt and black dusts collected out of Jikryung for official dress. The composition and status of the fiber were clarified by means of Microscopic FT-IR and both cross sectioanl and side parts of the fiber were observed using the technique of scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Finally EDS analysis was carried out to qualitatively analyze inorganic ingredients contained in the carbonized fiber. As a result of FT-IR measurement, characteristic peak was very strong around $1625cm^{-1}$ and could be found even between 2500 and $2300cm^{-1}$ because of a high-molecule pigmental substance, melanine. When SEM photography was applied to the fractions, the tissues were identified as silk fiborine through the observation of their side and cross sectional parts. SEM-EDS measurement indicated that both the cotton skirt and Jikryung for official dress contained a high proportion of inorganic substances such as Si, Ca suggesting the existence of silicide and calcium carbonate.
