Patent ID: 11466385

Abstract:
A large grain quasi-single-crystal film and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The metal film having the <111> preferred orientation on its surface is subjected to mechanical tensile force to make the arrangement of crystal grains more ordered. The metal film is grown into a film with large crystal grains having an average diameter of over 500 microns by annealing at a temperature below the recrystallization temperature, thereby obtaining a large grain quasi-single-crystal film having the preferred directions of three axes. The large grain quasi-single-crystal film has a <110> preferred orientation along the tensile direction and a <211> preferred orientation along the direction vertical to the tensile force, and maintains a <111> preferred orientation on its top surface. The present invention can be used to produce highly anisotropic large-area quasi-single-crystal films, and can also be applied to grow 2-dimensional materials or develop anisotropic structures.
