ABSTRACTA refractory metallization of Au/Nb is proposed for use in first level metallization of GaAs devices. The diffusion and reaction kinetics are explored using sheet resistance measurements, along with X-ray diffraction and Auger electron spectroscopy depth profiling. The interdiffusion coefficients are reported. Diodes are fabricated using Nb/Au metallization and characterized

AbstractThe interaction of Al and W in the Si/SiO2/W-Ti/Al thin film system is studied quantitatively by glancing angle x-ray diffraction. The formation of Al-W compounds due to annealing is monitored by the variation of the integrated intensity from a few x-ray diffraction peaks of the corresponding compounds. The annealing was conducted at 400°C, 450°C and 500°C from 1 hour to 300 hours. The kinetics of compound formation is determined using x-ray diffraction data and verified by TEM observations. We will also show the correlation of the compound formation to the change of the electrical properties of these films.

ABSTRACTThis study focuses on the sequential formation of aluminide phases during annealing of titanium and aluminum thin film bilayers. The formation of titanium-rich intermetallic phases at higher annealing temperatures is emphasized. Using Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS) analysis, and x-ray diffraction, phases formed as a function of temperature have been identified. The phases Al3Ti through Ti3Al were observed over the temperature range 450–750°C, where reaction with the SiO2 substrate occurred. All phases were present as discreet layers within the samples with several layered phases coexisting at the higher temperatures.
