Abstract:
A conductive source/drain contact is formed within a trench overlying a raised epitaxial source/drain junction. The conductive contact includes a conductive liner and a conductive fill material formed directly over the conductive liner. The conductive fill material is selected from a platinum group metal such as ruthenium. The conductive liner may be directionally deposited into the trench and is adapted to form a metal silicide in situ through a reaction with the epitaxial layer.
