Abstract

Since self-aligned suicides are beginning to be used routinely in integral ULSI processes, critical processing characteristics need to be investigated. In this paper, three relevant issues concerning processing are discussed, namely, the formation of ultra-thin suicides, the silicidation of laterally confined areas and the thermal stability of silicide/Si structures. The technological aspects of TiSi2 and COSi2 are discussed and related to their materials properties.
