Effect of high temperature annealing on the electrical performance of titanium/platinum thin films
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study, the influence of post deposition annealing steps (PDA) on the electrical resistivity of evaporated titanium/platinum thin films on thermally oxidised silicon is investigated. Varying parameters are the impact of thermal loading with maximum temperatures up to TPDA=700 °C and the platinum top layer thickness ranging from 24 nm to 105 nm. The titanium based adhesive film thickness is fixed to 10 nm. Up to post deposition annealing temperatures of TPDA=450 °C, the film resistivity is linearly correlated with the reciprocal value of the platinum film thickness according to the size effect. Modifications in the intrinsic film stress strongly influence the electrical material parameter in this temperature regime. At TPDAN600 °C, diffusion of titanium into the platinum top layer and its plastic deformation dominate the electrical behaviour, both causing an increase in film resistivity above average. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

متن کاملEffect of annealing and UV illumination on properties of nanocrystalline ZnO thin films
ZnO thin films with preferred orientation along the (002) plane were prepared onto the glass substrates by the sol-gel spin coating method for different post- annealing temperatures. The XRD study confirms that the thin films grown by this method have good crystalline hexagonal wurtzite structure. The optical band gap of the samples was determined from UV-visible spectra. It is found that the s...
