Abstract

Wc have examined quality of axial oricntation along thc Ge<111> direction in order to find dominant factors for epitaxy control of Fe or Fe layers on Ge(111) by 2.0MeV- 4He+ ion channeling measurements. The axial channeling along thc Gc<111> orientation reveled that the axial orientation at thc interface betwccn the Heusler alloy layer and Ge dcgraded as thc Mn content increased. This dcgradation may be causcd by increasing of a lattice misfit bctween Fe3-xMnxSi and Ge. We discusscd on atomic displacements consisting of thermal vibration and static displaccment due to disorders in the lattice using results obtained from low tcmperature channeling measurements.
