A simple process for formation of a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) involves fabrication of a polysilicon/oxide gate between source and drain regions. Contact is made to source/drain regions by use of TiSi2 layers followed by Al(Cu) metal lines. A silicide layeris used toreduce contact resistance. TiSi2 is chosen as a contact layer because in the C54phase, the silicide has a lower resistivity (~12 μΏ-cm) than most other silicides (except for CoSi2 ~10-15 μΏ-cm). During formation of TiSi2 contact layers to MOSFET source/drain regions, a deterioration of the TiSi2 is occasionally observed. The deterioration typically consists of buckling and delamination of Ti(TiSi2) films from the source/drain regions. When buckling occurs, electrical contact between Al metal and MOSFET source/drain regions is quite poor. The present study investigates the microstructure and behavior of TiSi2 contact layers used at source/drain regions of MOSFETs. The cause of deterioration of contact-layers is investigated and a potential solution to this problem is explored.

Abstract A top-gate field-effect transistor (FET), based on monolayer (ML) tungsten disulfide (WS2), and with an ion-gel dielectric was developed. The high electrical contact resistance of the Schottky contacts at the n-type transition metal dichalcogenides/metal electrode interfaces often adversely affects the device performance. We report the contact resistance and Schottky barrier height of an FET with Au electrodes. The FET is based on ML WS2 that was synthesised using chemical vapour deposition and was assessed using the transfer-length method and low-temperature measurements. Raman and photoluminescence spectra were recorded to determine the optical properties of the WS2 layers. The ML WS2 FET with an ion-gel top gate dielectric exhibits n-type behaviour, with a mobility, on/off ratio of 1.97 cm2/V·s, 1.51×105, respectively.
