Ni silicidation on Heavily Doped Si Substrates
Ni silicide films were formed on both heavily doped n+and p+Si substrates at various temperatures ranged from 200℃ to 950℃ and its electrical and structural properties were studied. It was found that the phase traasition temperature from NiSi phase to NiSi2 phase depend on substrate types; 900℃ for NiSi film on n+Si substrate and 750℃ for NiSi film on p+Si substrate,respectively. It was also found that agglomerations of Ni silicide films on n+Si substrates begin to occur at the annealing temperatures around 600℃ while there is no agglomeration observed in Ni silicide films on p+Si substrates up to 700℃. Obtained results show that the agglomeration is especially important factor in the process temperature dependency of the sheet resistance of Ni silicides formed on n+Si substrates. It was also demonstrated that the agglomeration can be suppressed by an inserted thin Boron layer at the interface of Ni/Si.
