摘要
A new process for depositing tungsten nitride (WNx) thin films is reported. It is based on plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) using WF6+N-2+H-2 chemistry. High purity films that are stable in air have been obtained using the PECVD process. Effects of process conditions on conformality, film purity, and morphology are examined.
