| dc.description.abstract |
An improved Ni salicide process has been developed
by incorporating nitrogen (N+
2 ) implant prior to Ni deposition
to widen the salicide processing temperature window. Salicided
poly-Si gate and active regions of different linewidths show
improved thermal stability with low sheet resistance up to a salicidation
temperature of 700 and 750 °C, respectively. Nitrogen was
found to be confined within the NiSi layer and reduced agglomeration
of the silicide. Phase transformation to the undesirable
high resistivity NiSi2 phase was delayed, likely due to a change
in the interfacial energy. The electrical results of N+2 implanted
Ni-salicided PMOSFETs show higher drive current and lower
junction leakage as compared to devices with no N+2 implant. |
