摘要
Reaction steps of silicidation in ZrO2/SiO2/Si layered structure have been investigated in terms of ultrahigh vacuum annealing. Comparison of 2- and 20-nm ZrO2 films at 920 degreesC revealed that the trigger of silicidation is the contact of ZrO2, SiO, and Si accompanying disappearance of interfacial SiO2 layer due to SiO desorption. In the contact position, a small amount of SiO gas can easily change ZrO2 to ZrSi2. Moreover, this reaction model is also applicable to the silicidation of gate polycrystalline-Si (poly-Si)/ZrO2 interface. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
