Abstract

The silicidation of chemical vapor deposited (CVD) titanium has been investigated utilizing the Materials Research Corporation (MRC) PHOENIX™ cluster-tool platform which incorporated an AST elektronik GmbH cluster RTP chamber. This initial investigation focuses on C49 and C54 TiSi2 phase formation on bare silicon wafers. Equipment description, process results, comparison to classical PVD Ti silicide processing and future investigations will be presented.
