Abstract

Low resistivity (∼15μΩ-cm) TiSi2, CoSi2 and NiSi lines have been shown to be thermally stable and show no linewidth dependence after ∼850°C, 800°C and 700°C/1 hour annealing on poly-Si (B, As, and P-doped) with linewidths down to ∼0.43, 0.42 and 0.15 μm. Better thermal stability of silicides might be correlated to the larger poly grains formed after high dose implant and post-implant anneal.
