| Research Abstract |
Reaction diffusion in Fe/Si binary system has been studied by using bulk diffusion couples being consisted of 3 kinds of iron sheets, i.e., 4N-Fe, 2N-Fe and interstitial free steel(IF-steel) and a <100> oriented silicon wafer. The growth rate of diffusion layers formed in these diffusion couples considerably differ from each other. The rate of the layers formed in the IF-steel/Si couple is more than ten times faster than that in the 4N-Fe/Si diffusion couple.
The reason for the different growth rate was discussed by correlating the effect of impurity contained in these Fe sheets. A possible explanation of this growth behavior has been proposed as follows that oxygen in 4N-Fe is considered as a candidate which slows down the growth rate of iron silicides, although the evidence is not found, and Ti in 4N-Fe remove the effect of oxygen by scavenging effect so that the growth in if-steel/Si couple can be faster than 4N-Fe/Si couples.
