Abstract
The thermally induced solid-state reaction between a 10-nm-thick Ni film and a Si(001) substrate was investigated using in situ x-ray diffraction and ex situ pole figure analyses. The reaction begins with the appearance of orthorhombic Ni2Si grains characterized by a strong fiber texture. The formation of the metastable hexagonal θ phase—which inherits the fiber texture of Ni2Si—is then observed. This phase has been observed in every sample studied regardless of dopant, film thickness, deposition method, and anneal profile (>2000 conditions). Texture inheritance allows a reaction pathway with a lower activation energy than the expected formation through thermodynamically stable Ni silicide phases.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
