  • Method for fabricating a semiconductor structure having a crystalline alkaline earth metal oxide interface with silicon
    Patent number: 6224669
    Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor structure comprises the steps of providing a silicon substrate (10) having a surface (12); forming on the surface of the silicon substrate an interface (14) comprising a single atomic layer of silicon, oxygen, and a metal; and forming one or more layers of a single crystal oxide (26) on the interface. The interface comprises an atomic layer of silicon, oxygen, and a metal in the form XSiO2, where X is a metal.
