EN The paper presents our recent investigations of the early stage growth of titanium silicides on a modified Si(100) substrate. The substrate was modified by deposition of a minute amount of Ni atoms, and the subsequent flash annealing. This process led to the creation of parallel defect lines on the Si(100) surface. We expected TiSi2 to form elongated structures on top and/or between the defect lines. Though this idea failed, stable nanostructures were observed and characterized using scanning probe microscopy (scanning tunneling microscopy and atomic force microscopy) methods.
