ABSTRACTThe interaction of titanium thin films sputter-deposited onto single crystal silicon was studied by in situ heating experiments within the TEM. Reactions at the Ti-Si interface including amorphization, crystallization, allotropie phase transformations and agglomeration have been observed in real time and recorded on videotape. Interpretation of these recordings can yield a wealth of information on the silicidation process.

This paper presents a new method to measure the thickness of very thin films on a substrate material using energy dispersive x-ray diffractometry. The method can be used for many film-substrate combinations. The specific application to be presented is the measurement of phosphosilicate glass films on single crystal silicon wafers.
