Recently a new process was developed to obtain single crystal silicon film on glass substrate (SOG) at Corning Inc. [1]. The process not only allows the formation of a thin single crystal silicon film on the glass substrate, but also creates a silica interface layer and a barrier layer in the glass, which is permanently free of any mobile ions. At various stages of the above project, cross-sectional TEM samples were prepared to characterize the chemistry and the crystallinity properties of the
