摘要:
Methods of forming a semiconductor device include providing a substrate having an area including a source and a drain region of a transistor. A nickel (Ni) metal film is formed on the substrate area including the source and the drain region. A first heat-treatment process is performed including heating the substrate including the metal film from a first temperature to a second temperature at a first ramping rate and holding the substrate including the metal film at the second temperature for a first period of time. A second heat-treatment process is then performed including heating the substrate including the metal film from a third temperature to a fourth temperature at a second ramping rate and holding the substrate at the fourth temperature for a second period of time. The fourth temperature is different from the second temperature and the second period of time is different from the first period of time. The sequentially performed first and second heat-treatment processes convert the Ni metal layer on the source and drain regions into a NiSi layer on the source and drain regions and a NiSi2 layer between the NiSi layer and the source and drain regions.

A method of fabricating a metal silicide layer includes forming a metal layer on a substrate, and forming a pre-metal silicide layer by reacting the substrate with the metal layer by performing a first annealing process on the substrate. The method also includes implanting silicon into the substrate using a gas cluster ion beam (GCIB) process, and changing the pre-metal silicide layer into a metal silicide layer by performing a second annealing process on the substrate.
摘要:
In a method of forming an ohmic layer of a DRAM device, the metal silicide layer between the storage node contact plug and the lower electrode of a capacitor is formed as the ohmic layer by a first heat treatment under a first temperature and an instantaneous second heat treatment under a second temperature higher than the first temperature. Thus, the metal silicide layer has a thermo-stable crystal structure and little or no agglomeration occurs on the metal silicide layer in the high temperature process. Accordingly, the sheet resistance of the ohmic layer may not increase in spite of the subsequent high temperature process.

Methods of fabricating semiconductor devices include forming a transistor on and/or in a semiconductor substrate, wherein the transistor includes a source/drain region and a gate pattern disposed on a channel region adjacent the source/drain region. An insulating layer is formed on the transistor and patterned to expose the source/drain region. A semiconductor source layer is formed on the exposed source/drain region and on an adjacent portion of the insulating layer. A metal source layer is formed on the semiconductor source layer. Annealing, is performed to form a first metal-semiconductor compound region on the source/drain region and a second metal-semiconductor compound region on the adjacent portion of the insulating layer. The first metal-semiconductor compound region may be thicker than the second metal-semiconductor compound region. The metal source layer may include a metal layer and a metal nitride barrier layer.
