AbstractThe effect of Rapid Thermal Annealing on phase formation and diffusion processes in the Ni(30 nm) /Al(10 nm)/Si system was studied and coxpared to a Ni(30 nm)/Si reference system. Heat treatments were carried out at temperatures between 400°C and 900°C for 2 seconds.The results obtained by means of TEM, AES and XRD indicated that the Ni/Al/Si system underwent a local melting in the intermediate Al layer at the Al/Si eutectic temperature (577°C). This reaction, due to the rapid melting process, resulted in formation of a unique layered-structure composed of a columnar polycrystalline layer (60 nm thick) of Ni2Si and NiSi adjacent to the Si substrate with relatively smooth interface and an outer layer of two separate polycrystalline films (both about 10 m thick) of Al3Ni (inside) and Ni(Al0.5Si0.5 ) (outside). Under the same rapid thermal processing conditions the Ni/Si reference system underwent a solid state reaction which resulted in the formation of a polycrystalline layer (60 nm thick) composed of Ni2Si and NiSi as well as NiSi2.

AbstractRapid thermal annealed tail regions of shallow junction arsenic implants into silicon have been investigated. Tail profiles have been roduced by an anodic oxidation and stripping technique after implantation to fluences of 1014 to 1016 cm−2 and by implanting through a layer of silicon dioxide. Electrical activation and diffusion have been achieved by rapid thermal annealing in the temperature range of 800 to 1100 °C. Electrically active defects remain after annealing. Spreading resistance and deep level transient spectroscopy results are presented. The diffusion of the arsenic tail is discussed and compared with currently accepted models.

AbstractThe ion-beam-sputtered polycrystalline SiGe film and its doping properties have been studied. Boron and phosphorus have been doped into the sputtered poly-SiGe film by ion implantation and diffusion. To activate the implanted impurities, both rapid thermal annealing and fiirnace annealing have been used. The electrical measurements show that boron and plhosphorus can be doped into sputtered SiGe films and effectively activated by both ion implantation with post-annealing and diffiision. Hall mobilities as high as 31 cm2/V-s and 20 cm2/V.s have been obtained in B-difflhsed and P-diffused SiGe films, respectively. The x-ray diffraction spectra of the sputtered Sifie filhn show its typical polycrystalline structure with (111), (220) and (311) as the preferential orientations.

ABSTRACTTransient enhanced diffusion (TED) and electrical activation (EA) of ion-implanted boron during rapid thermal annealing has been investigated using three types of boron doped p-type Si (100) substrates: (a) Cz 20 Ωcm, (b) 3 μm thick 20 Ωcm epitaxial Si layer (epi-layer) grown on a 20 Ωcm Cz substrate, and (c) 3 μm thick 20 Ωcm epi-layer grown on a 5 mΩcin Fz substrate. The level of oxygen is known to decrease from material type (a) to (c). The samples were implanted with 20 keV, 5×1013cm−2boron and subjected to rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at various temperatures and times. The EA and TED were studied using spreading resistance profiling (SRP) and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), respectively. Although the amount of TED is almost identical for the three substrates, the EA is found to be significantly higher in the epi-layers compared to Cz substrates. It is speculated that the trapping of vacancies by oxygen in the ion-damaged region leads to an increase in the interstitial supersaturation during annealing, which then results in enhanced boron clustering and reduced electrical activation in the peak of the implanted profile.

AbstractWe comparatively studied the formation of ultra thin Co silicides, Co2Si, CoSi and CoSi2, with/without a Ti-capped and Ti-mediated layer by using rapid thermal annealing in a N2 ambient. Four-point-probe sheet resistance measurements and plan-view electron diffraction were used to characterize the silicides as well as the epitaxial characteristics of CoSi2 with Si. We found that the formation of the Co silicides and their existing duration are strongly influenced by the presence of a Ti-capped and Ti-mediated layer. A Ti-capped layer promotes significantly CoSi formation but suppresses Co2Si, and delays CoSi2, which advantageously increases the silicidation-processing window. A Ti-mediated layer acting as a diffusion barrier to the supply of Co suppresses the formation of both Co2Si and CoSi but energetically favors directly forming CoSi2. Plan-view electron diffraction studies indicated that both a Ti-capped and Ti-mediated layer could be used to form ultra thin epitaxial CoSi2 silicide.
