Three mixtures of elemental powders of Al-25at.%Ti, 48at.%Ti and 70at.%Ti were offered to ball milling process for the formation of intermetallic compounds of $Al_3Ti$, AlTi and $Ti_3Al$. Ballmilling or attrition process were carried out at the condition of rotaing speed of 110 or 350 rpm at $10^{-3}$ torr vacuum or argon atmospheres. $Al_3Ti$phases were fully obtained by heat treatment for 1 hors at $600^{\circ}C$ with Al-25at.%Ti composition mixtures milled by 100 hours. The amorphous phase was completely formed at the composition of Al-48at.%Ti mixed powders by milling 100hours at the 50 to 1 weight ratio of ball to powder, and AlTi compounds were obtained by heat treament. In the case of Al-70at%Ti mixed powders milled for 100 hours, $Ti_3Al$ and $Al_3Ti$intermetallic compounds were formed by heat treatment for 1 hour at $600^{\circ}C$. By attrition milling of 350rpm for 10 hours, $Ti_3Al$ phase was formed completley after heat treatment for 1 hour at $600^{\circ}C$.

The physical and electrical properties of TiN/TiSiS12T bilayer were studied. The TiN/TiSiS12T bilayer was formed by rapid thermal anneal in NHS13T ambient after the Ti film was deposited on silicon substrate. The Ti film reacts with NHS13T gas to make a TiN layer at the surface and reacts with silicon to make a TiSiS12T layer at the interface respectively. It was found that the formation of TiN/TiSiS12T bilayer depends on RTA temperature. In this experiment, competitive reaction for TiN/TiSiS12T bilayer occured above $600^{\circ}C$. Ti-rich TiNS1xT layer and Ti-rich TiSiS1xT layer and Ti-rich TiSiS1xT layer were formed at $600^{\circ}C$. stable structure TiN layer TiSiS12T layer which has CS149T phase and CS154T phase were formed at $700^{\circ}C$. Both stable TiN layer and CS154T phase TiSiS12T layer were formed at 80$0^{\circ}C$. The thickness of TiN/TiSiS12T bilayer was increased as the thickness of deposited Ti film increased.

The reactions of $Cu/Ti/SiO_2$ structures at temperatures ranging from 200 to $700^{\circ}C$ have been studied for various Ti thicknesses. The reaction products initially formed, at around $300^{\circ}C$, were a series of Cu-Ti intermetallics ($Cu_3$Ti/CuTi) with the oxygen dissolved in the Ti moving from the compounds into the remaining unreacted Ti. At $500^{\circ}C$, the $Cu_3$Ti was converted into Cu-rich intermetallics, $Cu_4$Ti, which grew at the expense of the CuTi due to the increased oxygen content in the Ti. In addition, the outdiffusion of Ti, to the Cu surface, and the $Ti-SiO_2$ reactions, caused an abrupt increase in the oxygen content in the Ti layer, which placed thermodynamic restraints on further Ti reactions. Furthermore, thinner Ti layers showed a higher increasing rate of oxygen accumulation for the same consumption of Ti, which led to significantly reduced Ti consumption. The $SiO_2$ film under the Ti diffusion barrier was more easily destroyed with increasing Ti thickness.

The physical and electrical properties of TiN/TiSiS12T contact barrier were studied. The TiN/TiSiS12T system was formed by rapid thermal anneal in NS12T ambient after the Ti film was deposited on silicon substrate. The Ti film reacts with NS12T gas to make a TiN layer at the surface and reacts with silicon to make a TiSiS12T layer at the interface respectively. It was found that the formation of TiN/TiSiS12T system depends on RTA temperature. In this experiment, competitive reaction for TiN/TiSiS12T system occured above $600^{\circ}C$. Ti-rich TiNS1xT layer and Ti-rich TiSiS1xT layer were formed at $600^{\circ}C$. stable structure TiN layer and TiSiS1xT layer which has CS149T phase and CS154T phase were formed at $700^{\circ}C$.

MESFETs of the Ti/Au and Ti/Pd/Au gate were fabricated on n-type GaAs. Interdiffusion at Schottky interfaces, Schottky contact properties, and MESFET characteristics with heat treatment were investigated. Ti of Ti/Au contact and Pd of Ti/Pd/Au contact acted as a barrier metal against interdiffusion of Au at >$220^{\circ}C$. Pd of Ti/Pd/Au contact acted as a barrier metal even at >$360^{\circ}C$, however, Ti of Ti/Au contact promoted interdiffusion of Au instead of role of barrier metal. As the heat treatment temperature increases, in the case of both contact, saturated drain current and pinch off voltage decreased, open channel resistance increased, and degree of parameter variation in Ti/Au gate was higher than in Ti/Pd/Au gate at >$360^{\circ}C$ Schottky barrier height of Ti/Au and Ti/Pd/Au contacts was 0.69eV and 0.68eV in the as-deposited state, respectively, and Fermi level was pinned in the vicinity of 1/2Eg. As the heat treatment temperature increases, barrier height of Ti/Pd/Au contact increased, however, decreased at >$360^{\circ}C$ in the case of Ti/Au contact. Ideality factor of Ti/Au contact was nearly constant regardless of heat treatment, however, increased at >$360^{\circ}C$ in the case of Ti/Au contact. From the results above, Ti/Pd/Au was stable gate metal than Ti/Au.

Mo(Ti) alloy and pure Cu thin films were subsequently deposited on $SiO_2-coated$ Si wafers, resulting in $Cu/Mo(Ti)/SiO_2$ structures. The multi-structures have been annealed in vacuum at $100-600^{\circ}C$ for 30 min to investigate the outdiffusion of Ti to Cu surface. Annealing at high temperature allowed the outdiffusion of Ti from the Mo(Ti) alloy underlayer to the Cu surface and then forming $TiO_2$ on the surface, which protected the Cu surface against $SiH_4＋NH_3$ plasma during the deposition of $Si_3N_4$ on Cu. The formation of $TiO_2$ layer on the Cu surface was a strong function of annealing temperature and Ti concentration in Mo(Ti) underlayer. Significant outdiffusion of Ti started to occur at $400^{\circ}C$ when the Ti concentration in Mo(Ti) alloy was higher than 60 at.%. This resulted in the formation of $TiO_2/Cu/Mo(Ti)\;alloy/SiO_2$ structures. We have employed the as-deposited Cu/Mo(Ti) alloy and the $500^{\circ}C-annealed$ Cu/Mo(Ti) alloy as gate electrodes to fabricate TFT devices, and then measured the electrical characteristics. The $500^{\circ}C$ annealed Cu/Mo($Ti{\geq}60at.%$) gate electrode TFT showed the excellent electrical characteristics ($mobility\;=\;0.488\;-\;0.505\;cm^2/Vs$, on/off $ratio\;=\;2{\times}10^5-1.85{\times}10^6$, subthreshold = 0.733.1.13 V/decade), indicating that the use of Ti-rich($Ti{\geq}60at.%$) alloy underlayer effectively passivated the Cu surface as a result of the formation of $TiO_2$ on the Cu grain boundaries.

16M DRAM 용 Al/Si contact 의 열적안정성을 개선하기 위하여 "stuffed" TiN/Ti diffusion barrier를 사용하였다. Diffusion barrier 로서의 특성을 개선하기 위한 Al 증착전 TiN/Ti barrier metal의 열처리 과정중 barrier metal의 두께, 열처리온도, 분위기 등을 변화시켰다. 질소분위기하에서 450도에서 TiN(900A)/Ti(300A) 박막을 열처리 하여 "stuffed" barrier metal을 형성 시켰을 경우 Al 원자의 TiN층으로의 확산의 600도에서 후속열처리한 경우 일어났으나, 700도까지도 Al-spike를 관찰할 수 없었다. 그러나 "stuffed" barrier metal을 550도에서 형성한 경우에는 600도의 후속열처리온도에서 Al이 Si 기판으로 침투했음을 관찰하였다. 박막의 두께를 얇게한 경우, 600도의 후속 열처리에서 Al-spike가 형성되었음을 확인하였다.

Radio frequency magnetron sputtering방법으로 타켈의 Ti/si 조성과 $N_2$ 유량을 변화시켜 증착한 다양한 조성비의 Ti-Si-N 박막의 비저항 변화와 확산방지능력을 조사하였다. 높은 Si 함량을 포함한 Ti-Si-N박막내의 Si은 주로 비정질의 $Si_3N_4$ 형태로 존재하였으며 $N_2$의 양이 증가함에 따라 비저항도 증가하였다. 반면, 낮은 Si 함량을 포함한 Ti-Si-N박막은 낮은 $N_2$ 유량에서도 결정질의 TiN이 형성되었고 낮은 비저항을 나타내었다. 또한, 박막내의 N의 양이 증가함에 따라, 높은 박막의 밀도와 압축응력을 갖는 Ti-Si-N이 형성되었으며, 이는 박막 내의 N의 함량이 확산방지능력에 영향을 미치는 가장 중요한 요소 중 하나로 판단된다. 결과적으로, 29~49 at.%, Ti, 6~20 at.% Si, 45~55 at.% N 범위의 조성을 갖는 Ti-Si-N박막이 우수한 확산 억제 능력을 보유하면서 또한 낮은 비저항 특성을 나타내는데 적합한 조성 범위로 나타났다.

Ti-Si-N films were deposited onto WC-Co substrate by a RF-PECVD technique. The deposition behaviors of Ti-Si-N films were investigated by varying the deposition temperature, RF power, and reaction gas ratio (Mx). Ti-Si-N films deposited at 500, 180W, and Mx 60% had a maximum hardness value of 38GPa. The microstructure of films with a maximum hardness was revealed to be a nanocomposite of TiN crystallites penetrated by amorphous silicon nitride phase by HRTEM analyses. The microstructure of maximum hardness with Si content (10 at.%) was revealed to be a nanocomposite of TiN crystallites penetrated by amorphous silicon nitride phase, but to have partly aligned structure of TiN and some inhomogeniety in distribution. and At above 10 at.% Si content, TiN crystallite became finer and more isotropic also thickness of amorphous silicon nitride phase increased at microstructure.

Microstructure and phase transformation of mechanically alloyed TiNi powders added to aluminium matrix for enhancing the damping properties were studied. Four compositions between 48.5 and 51.5 at% Ti intermetallic compounds were selected to control the fraction of martensite phase. Mechanically alloyed TiNi powders were heat-treated at vacuum of $10^{-6}$ torr for crystallization. Ball milled AI/TiNi composite powders were swaged at room temperature and rolled at 450 $^{\circ}C$. After mechanical alloying for 10 hours, Ti and Ni elements were alloyed completely and amorphous phase was formed. Amorphous phase was crystallized to martensite (Bl9') and austenite(B2) after heat treating for 1 hour at the temperature of 850 $^{\circ}C$, and TiNi$_3$, intermetallic compound was partially formed. Considerable amount of martensite phase was remained after swaging and rolling.
