Abstract
It was found that cubic CoSi2, tetragonal α-FeSi2 and orthorhombic NiSi films formed by the solid state reaction of metal films and single crystal Si(100) substrates are textured. The polycrystalline films consist of grains in which certain crystallographic planes align preferentially with [110]-type planes of Si, leading to an oil-normal fiber-like texture.
