Abstract

In this work we show a preparation technique of Co2FeSi full-Heusler alloy thin films on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates, employing rapid thermal annealing (RTA). The films of the Co2FeSi alloy were formed by a silicidation reaction, caused by RTA, between the ultrathin SOI (001) layer and the Fe/Co layers deposited on it. It is assumed that this technology is compatible with the process of formation of a half-metal source-drain in an advanced CMOS and SOI technology and will be applicable for the manufacture of a source-drain of a field-effect transistor. Schottky barrier field-effect transistors (FET) with a back-gate, based on silicon nanowires with source and drain of a Co2FeSi film, synthesized on an SOI substrate, were manufactured. The transport properties of the device were investigated.
