ABSTRACTIon beam irradiation of metal film/SiO2 interfaces causes reactions when the metals are those chemically capable of reducing SiO2. These reactions result in the formation of metal rich silicides in the region of the interface and an increase in the adhesion of the film to the substrate. For other nonreactive metals ion irradiation causes lateral transport of metal atoms resulting in the formation of an island structure. The results obtained by ion irradiation are compared with previous studies of high temperature thermal processing of metal films on SiO2.

Metal silicides have found increasing use in microelectronic industry as contact material as well as interconnect between devices. Silicide formation is based on the reaction between metal film and substrate silicon. Thermal, laser, electron beam and ion-mixing induced silicide formation have been widely studied. Recently both scanning and pulsed ion beams have been used to anneal semiconductors. In this presentation, we report pulsed ion beam induced silicide formation.Ni films, 300 and 400 Å thick, were e-gun deposited on (001) oriented, 2 Ω-cm, n-type silicon with substrate temperature maintained at 150°C. A magnetically insulated diode driven by a Marx generator, constructed and run by J. Neri and D. Hammer of Laboratory for Plasma Studies at Cornell in conjunction with J. E. E. Baglin of IBM Research was used to produce pulsed proton and barium beams. Samples were irradiated with about 200 nsec, 200-300 keV, 10-100 A/cm2 ion pulses. A Gaussian-type radial profile was generally obtained. Thin foils for transmission electron microscope study were then chemically polished from silicon side. JEOL 100B and Siemens 102 electron microscopes were used to investigate microstructural changes.
