The article investigates the effect of rapid thermal annealing of ternary GaAs1-xNx/GaAs solid solutions on the distribution of nitrogen atoms in the crystal lattice. The samples are studied by photoluminescence spectroscopy and high-resolution X-ray diffractometry. Due to the size and electronegativity mismatch of nitrogen and arsenic atoms, nitrogen is incorporated unevenly into the GaAs crystal lattice. Options of the nitrogen atoms arrangement in the GaAs crystal lattice before and after rapid thermal annealing are shown.

ABSTRACTIn this paper, low-energy (45 keV) implantations of phosphorous and boron into silicon were studied. A comparison of doping profiles, secondary defect formation, electrical activation and diode leakage was made between Rapid Thermal Annealing (RTA) and conventional furnace annealing. The samples were analysed by High-Resolution X-Ray Diffraction (HR-XRD), X-TEM, SIMS, spreading resistance (SRP) and sheet resistance measurements.The non-destructive HR-XRD technique combined with the novel simulation software was a very useful tool for the defect characterisation and for the choice of the optimum annealing temperature. Furthermore estimations of electrically active dopant atoms were made with HR-XRD by measurement of the strain. With RTA a substitutional dopant concentration of a factor 2 to 4 higher than with furnace annealing can be obtained, for P and B respectively. Electrical measurements show that not all of the substitutional dopants are electrically active, however. Thus estimates of the electrically active dopant atoms with HR-XRD require further study. Furthermore it appeared that RTA was superior to furnace anneal for lowering sheet resistances, defect removal and dopant profile broadening. However, furnace anneal gave the best results for diode leakage currents. This indicates that RTA processing needs to be further refined or that combined RTA/furnace processes need to be developed.

Tungsten thin films are deposited with a triode sputtering system in order to obtain an absorbing layer for X-ray masks. The mechanical stress is studied as a function of different pressure and RF power conditions during deposition. Rapid thermal annealing at different temperatures and durations is performed in order to produce films under low compressive stress. We observe that the stress changes occur over the time scale of seconds at the annealing temperature and that the corresponding activation energies are low (60 meV). Grain growth in a preferred orientation explains the observed changes in stress. The magnitude in the change of stress is in good agreement with a model proposed by Hoffman et al. relating the stress to grain size and grain boundary dimensions. [Journal translation]

AbstractMicrowave afterglow plasma oxidation at a low temperature (600 °C ) and rapid thermal annealing (RTA) were combined to grow high quality ultra-thin dielectrics. This new approach has a low thermal budget. The mid-gap interface state density of oxides pretreated in N2O plasma was decreased to about 5×1010 cm−2eV−1 after rapid thermal annealing at 950 °C.It was found that RTA is very effective for relieving the oxide stress and reducing the interface state density. Nitrogen incorporated in oxides by the N2O plasma pretreatment of the Si surface helped to reduce the interface state density. Microstructures of ultra-thin oxide grown by microwave afterglow oxidation with or without RTA were revealed by extended-X-ray-absorption-finestructure (EXAFS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis.

Si-doped GaAs epitaxial layers grown by metal-organic chemical vapour deposition exhibit substantial carrier density loss after rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at temperatures higher than 850 °C. Hall-effect, capacitance–voltage, deep-level transient spectroscopy, and secondary ion mass spectroscopy measurements were performed on samples before and after RTA. We show that the reduction of free-carrier concentration in the entire thickness of the epitaxial layer is accompanied by the deterioration of the mobility and the enhancement of donor-like deep-level concentration at 0.305 eV below the conduction band, which is in good agreement with the model of silicon donor neutralization by formation of neutral silicon–hydrogen complexes.

ABSTRACTThe formation of composite TaSi2/n+ Poly-Si silicide films through the use of rapid thermal annealing (RTA) is investigated by x-ray diffraction, four point probe, scanning Auger microprobes (SAM) with ion sputter etching, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements. 0.2 μm polysilicon is deposited on oxidized Si wafer by LPCVD and doped with phosphorus. A layer of 2200 A TaSix is then co-sputtered on polysilicon samples from separate targets. These as-deposited films are then annealed by RTA in an argon ambient for 1 sec. and 10 sec. at various temperatures. X-ray diffraction and SAM results show the rapid formation of a uniform stoichiometric tantalum disilicide via Si migration from polysilicon. TEM micrographs show simlilar results for samples annealed at 1000°C in furnace for 30 min. or by RTA for 1 sec., exhibiting average grain size greater than 1000 A. Sheet resistance of samples annealed by furnace annealing and RTA are comparable. SEM micrographs indicate that the surface morphology of the RTA-annealed sample is superior to that obtained by furnace annealing. These results show that RTA may offer a practical solution to low-resistivity silicide formation in VLSI circuits.
