  • Abstract
    A new technology of cobalt SALICIDE (Self-ALIgned siliCIDE) process using cobalt-titanium alloy has been developed for sub-quarter micron devices. Extremely flat and epitaxial CoSi/sub 2/ films are successfully grown on a (100) Si substrate. Improved SALICIDE process is not influenced by native oxide on a Si surface. This technology will be very useful for realizing deep sub-quarter micron devices.
