Abstract

Nanometer-thick silicon oxide films are needed for miniaturization and increase in the working rate of electronic devices. Interpretation of the initial stages of silicon oxidation is necessary for fabrication of such structures. A theoretical model of the thermal oxidation of thin silicon monolayers that takes into account an increase in the stress in the transition (oxide–substrate) layer due to oxygen accumulation therein is proposed.
