AbstractSilane activation, predominantly in the gas phase, has been observed during the chemical vapor deposition of Ti-Si-N thin films using Ti(NMe2)4, tetrakis(dimethylamido)titanium, silane, and ammonia at 450°C, using molecular beam mass spectrometry. The extent of silane reactivity was dependent upon the relative amounts of Ti(NMe2)4and NH3. Additionally, each TDMAT molecule activates multiple silane molecules. Ti-Si-N thin films were deposited using similar process conditions as the molecular beam experiments, and RBS and XPS were used to determine their atomic composition. The variations of the Ti:Si ratio in the films as a function of Ti(NMe2)4 and NH3 flows were consistent with the changes in silane reactivity under similar conditions.
