Concurrent Junction process (simultaneous formation of a silicide and a junction on the implanted substrate) by Rapid Thermal Annealig has been investigated. Electrical and material properties of CoSi$_2$ films were analyzed with Alpha Step, 4-point probe, X-ray diffraction(XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM). And CoSi$_2$ junctions were examined with Spreading Resistance probe in order to see the redistribution of electrically activated dopants and determined the junction depth. Two step annealing process, which was 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 30sec and 100$0^{\circ}C$ for 30sec in NS12T ambient was employed to form CoSi$_2$ and shallow junctions. Resistivity of CoSi$_2$ was turned out to be 11-15${\mu}$cm and shallow junctions less than 0.1$\mu$m were successfully formed by the process. It was found that the dopant concentration at CoSi$_2$/Si interface increased as decreasing the thickness of Co films in case of $p^{+}/n$ and $n^{+}/p$ junctions while the junction depth decreased as increasing CoSiS12T thickness in case of $p^{+}/n$ junction.

Solid-state reactions in Ni/Si multilayered films (MLF) with an overall stoichiometry of $Ni_2Si$, NiSi and $NiSi_2$, induced by ion-beam mixing (IBM) and thermal annealing, were studied by using spectroscopic ellipsometry and magneto-optical spectroscopy as well as x-ray diffraction (XRD). The mixing was performed with Ar+ ions of an energy of 80 keV and a dose of $1.5 x\times10^{16}$ $Ar^+$/$\textrm{cm}^2$. It was shown that the IBM induces structural changes in the Ni/Si MLF, which cannot be detected by XRD but are confidently recognized by the optical method. A thermal annealing at 673 K of the Ni/Si MLF with an overall stoichiometry of NiSi and $NiSi_2$ causes formation of the first η -NiSi phase. The first trace for $NiSi_2$ phase on the background of NiSi one was detected by XRD after an annealing at 1073 K while, according to the optical results, $NiSi_2$ turns out be the dominant phase for the annealed Ni/Si MLF with an overall stoichiometry of $NiSi_2$.

Various sizes of erbium/platinum silicided n/p-type Schottky barrier metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (SB-MOSFETs) are manufactured from $20{\mu}m$ to 10nm. The manufactured SB-MOSFETs show excellent DIBL and subthreshold swing characteristics due to the existence of Schottky barrier between source and channel. It is found that the minimization of trap density between silicide and silicon interface and the reduction of the underlap resistance are the key factors for the improvement of short channel characteristics. The manufactured 10 nm n-type SBMOSFET showed $550{\mu}A/um$ saturation current at $V_{GS}-V_T$ = $V_{DS}$ = 2V condition ($T_{ox}$ = 5nm) with excellent short channel characteristics, which is the highest current level compared with reported data.

self-aligned silicide(salicide)제조시 CoSi2의 에피텍셜 성장을 돕기 위하여 Co와 Si 사이에 내열금속층을 넣은 Co/내열금속/Si의 실리사이드화가 관심을 끌고 있다. Hf 역시 Ti와 마찬가지로 이러한 용도로 사용될 수 있다. 한편, Co/Hf 이중층 salicide 트랜지스터가 성공적으로 만들어지기 위해서는 spacer oxide 위에 증착된 Co/Hf 이중층이 열적으로 안정해야 한다. 이러한 배경에서 본 연구에서는 SiO2기판 위에 증착한 Co 단일층과 Co/Hf 이중층을 급속열처리할 때 Co와 SiO2간의 계면과 Co/Hf와 SiO2간의 계면에서의 상호반응에 대하여 조사하였다. Co 단일층과 Co/Hf 이중층은 각각 $500^{\circ}C$와 $550^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 후 면저항이 급격하게 증가하기 시작하였는데, 이것은 Co층이 SiO2와의 계면에너지를 줄이기 위하여 응집되기 때문이다. 이 때 Co/Hf의 경우 열처리후 Hf에 의하여 SiO2 기판이 일부 분해됨으로써 Hf 산화물이 형성되었으나, 전도성이 있는 HfSix 등의 화합물은 발견되지 않았다.

As the engine design change to get high efficiency and performance of commercial diesel engine, surface wear of the cam follower becomes an important issues as applied load increasing at the contact face between cam follower and cam. Purpose of this study is the developing of the ceramic cam follower made of silicon nitride ceramic which is more wear resistant than the cast iron and sintered cam follower. Ceramic cam follower was made by direct brazing of thin ceramic disk to steel can follower body using active bracing alloy. Effect of joining condition on the interfacial phases and joining strength wer examined at bvarious joining temperatures, times, and cooling rates. Crowning resulted from the difference of thermal expansion coefficient after direct brazing without using any stress-relieving inter layer was measured. Interfacial phases are mainly titanium silicide and titanium nitride which are the products between active metal(Ti) in brazing alloy and silicon nitiride. Maximum joining strength of the ceramic metal joint, measured by DBS method, was 334MPa. Crowning(R) of the prototype ceramic cam follower was 1595mm. As machining for crowning is not necessary, production cost can be reduced.

FeSi2/Si Layer were grown using FeSi2, Si wafer by the chemical transport reactio nmethod. The directoptical energy gap was found to be 0.871eV at 300 K. The Hall effect is a physical effect arising in matter carrying electric current inthe presence of a magnetic field. The effect is named after the American physicist E. H. Hall, who discovered it in 1879. IN this paper, we study electrical properties of FeSi2/Si layer. And then we measured Hall coefficient Hall mobility, carrier density and Hall voltage according to variation magnetic field and temperature, Because of important part for it applicationVarious phase of silicide is formed at the metal-Si interface when transition metal contacts to Si. Silicides belong to metallic or semiconducting according to their electrical and optical properties. Metallic silicides are used as gate electrodes or interconnections in VLSI devices. Semiconducting silicides can be used as a new material for IR detectors because of their narrow energy band gap.

최근 나노입자를 이용한 비휘발성 메모리 소자의 제작에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 특히, 실리사이드 계열의 나노입자를 적용한 소자는 일함수가 크지만 실리콘 내의확산 문제를 가지고 있는 금속 나노입자와 달리 현 실리콘 기반의 반도체 공정 적용이 용이한 잇 점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실리사이드 계열의 화합물 중에서 4.63 eV인 Vanadium Silicide ($V_3$Si) 박막을 열처리 과정을 통하여 수 nm 크기의 나노입자로 제작하였다. 소자의 제작은 p-Si기판에 5 nm 두께의 $SiO_2$ 터널층을 dry oxidation 방법으로 성장시킨 후 $V_3$Si 금속박막을 RF magnetron sputtering system을 이용하여 3~5 nm 두께로 tunnel barrier위에 증착시켰다. Rapid thermal annealing법으로 질소 분위기에서 $1000^{\circ}C$의 온도로 30초 동안 열처리하여 $V_3$Si 나노 입자를 형성 하였으며. 20 nm 두께의 $SiO_2$ 컨트롤 산화막층을 ultra-high vacuum magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 증착하였다. 마지막으로 thermal evaporation system을 통하여 Al 전극을 직경 200, 두께 200nm로 증착하였다. 제작된 구조는 metal-oxide-semiconductor구조를 가지는 나노 부유 게이트 커패시터 이며, 제작된 시편은 transmission electron microscopy을 이용하여 $V_3$Si 나노입자의 크기와 균일성을 확인했다. 소자의 전기적인 측정은 E4980A capacitor parameter analyzer와 Agilent 81104A apulse pattern generator system을 이용한 전기용량-전압 측정을 통해 전하저장 효과를 분석하였다.

Using Platinum-silicide (PtSi) formed between silicon substrate and carbon film, we have improved the field emission of electrons from carbon films. Pt films were deposited on n-Si(100) substrates at room temperature by DC sputter technique. After deposition, these PtSi thin films were annealed at 400 ~ $600^{\circ}C$ in a vacuum chamber, and the carbon films were deposited on those Pt/Si substrates by laser ablation at room temperature. The field emission property of C/Pt/Si system is found to be better than that of C/Si system and it is showed that property was improved with increasing annealing temperature. The reasons why the field emission from carbon film was improved can be considered as follows, (1)the resistance of carbon films was decreased due to graphitization, (2)electric field concentration effectively occurred because the surface morphology of carbon film deposited on Pt/si substrates with rough surface, (3)it is showed that annealing induced reaction between Pt film and Si substrate, as a consequence that the interfacial resistance between Pt film and Si substrate was decreased.

Effect of Co substitution on crystal structures of two nickel silicides, NiSi and $NiSi_2$, is investigated by using an ab initio calculation. Relaxed NiSi and $NiSi_2$ structures are calculated and the calculated lattice parameters are in good agreement with experimentally determined lattice parameters within about 2%. A Co atom substitutes a Ni and Si site, respectively, to evaluate the preferable site between them. Co prefers Ni site to Si site in both NiSi and $NiSi_2$. The calculated total energy also indicates that the Co substitution to Ni site stabilizes both the NiSi and $NiSi_2$ structures. Co also prefers Ni site in $NiSi_2$ to that in NiSi, indicating that $NiSi_2$ becomes more stable than NiSi with Co substitution. As Co addition to NiSi improves its thermal stability experimentally, this indicates that the energy barrier between the two phases is high enough to prevent the phase transformation from NiSi to $NiSi_2$ up to high temperature.
