  title = {Growth of silicon nitride films by bombarding amorphous silicon with N+ ions: MD simulation},
  abstract = {In this study, the molecular dynamics simulation method was employed to investigate the growth of silicon nitride films by using N+ ions, with energies of 50, 100, 150 and 200 eV, to bombard an amorphous silicon surface at 300 K. After an initial period of N+ bombardment, saturation of the number of N atoms deposited on the surface is observed, which is in agreement with experiments. During subsequent steady state deposition, a balance between uptake of N by the surface and sputtering of previously deposited N is established. The Si(N-x) (x = 1-4) and N(Si-y) (y = 1-3) bond configurations in the grown films are analyzed. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},
