Metal silicides such as WSi2, MoSi2, TiSi2, TaSi2 and CoSi2 have received wide attention in recent years for semiconductor applications in integrated circuits. In this study, we describe the microstructures of WSix films deposited on SiO2 (oxide) and polysilicon (poly) surfaces on Si wafers afterdeposition and rapid thermal anneal (RTA) at several temperatures. The stoichiometry of WSix films was confirmed by Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy (RBS). A correlation between the observed microstructure and measured sheet resistance of the films was also obtained.WSix films were deposited by physical vapor deposition (PVD) using magnetron sputteringin a Varian 3180. A high purity tungsten silicide target with a Si:W ratio of 2.85 was used. Films deposited on oxide or poly substrates gave rise to a Si:W ratio of 2.65 as observed by RBS. To simulatethe thermal treatments of subsequent processing procedures, wafers with tungsten silicide films were subjected to RTA (AG Associates Heatpulse 4108) in a N2 ambient for 60 seconds at temperatures ranging from 700° to 1000°C.

We fabricated Si Nano-columns by a femtosecond laser with various wavelengths and process parameters, whilst the specimen was submerged in water. The experiments were carried out by three types of wavelengths i.e. 1030 nm, 515nm, 343nm, with 500 fs laser pulses. The scales of these spikes are much smaller than micro spikes that are constructed by laser irradiation of silicon surface in vacuum or gases like SF6, Cl2. The Si nano-columns of 300 nm or less in width were characterized by SEM measurements. The formation of these Si Nano-columns that were revealed by SEM observation, indicates chemical etching with laser ablation occurred when surface exposed by laser beam. We observed 200 nm spikes height at the center of laser beam profile and the ones uniform in height at lateral incident area.
