摘要:
A process for sputter deposition wherein high aspect ratio apertures are coated with conductive films exhibiting low bulk resistivity, low impurity concentrations, and regular morphologies. A collimator is used having an aspect ratio that approximates the aspect ratio of the apertures.
摘要:
A process for decreasing the electrical resistance of a circuit element containing titanium metal, in applications requiring annealing in hydrogen, is disclosed. The process requires, prior to exposure to hydrogen, heating the titanium-containing circuit element in an inert, hydrogen-free atmosphere. The process thus involves a first step of annealing the titanium-containing circuit element in an inert, hydrogen-free atmosphere, such as nitrogen or other inert gas, at 300.degree. C. to 400.degree. C. for 10 to 60 minutes, followed by a second step of annealing in a hydrogen-containing atmosphere, such as hydrogen gas or forming gas, at 350.degree. C. to 450.degree. C. for at least 20 minutes. The resulting structures have both low resistance and tight variability.
摘要:
An improved contactless temperature measurement system is provided which includes a workpiece, a chamber containing the workpiece with the walls thereof being substantially transmissive to radiation at wavelengths other than a given wavelength and substantially reflective at the given wavelength to remove the dependence of the apparent or measured temperature on the workpiece emissivity variations or fluctuations.
