摘要:
A method of preparing a die comprises treating exposed silicon to form an oxide prior to silicide formation; and depositing metal on the oxide. The metal may comprise titanium, cobalt, nickel, platinum, palladium, tungsten, molybdenum, or combinations thereof on the oxide. The oxide may be less than or equal to about 15 angstroms thick. In various embodiments, treating exposed silicon to form an oxide comprises forming a non- thermal oxide. Treating exposed silicon to form an oxide may also comprise treating the exposed silicon with an oxidizing plasma; alternatively, treating exposed silicon to form an oxide may comprise forming a chemical oxide. In certain other embodiments, treating exposed silicon to form an oxide comprises treating exposed silicon with a solution comprising ammonium hydroxide, hydrogen peroxide, and water; hydrochloric acid, hydrogen peroxide, and water; hydrogen peroxide; ozone; ozonated deionized water; or combinations thereof.

摘要:
A method for forming metal silicide regions in source and drain regions (160, 170) is described. Prior to the thermal annealing of the source and drain regions (160, 170), germanium is implanted into a semiconductor substrate adjacent to sidewall structures (90, 95) formed adjacent gate structures (60, 70). The position of the implanted germanium species in the semiconductor substrate will overlap the source and drain regions (160, 170). Following thermal annealing of the source and drain regions (160, 170), the implanted germanium prevents the formation of metal silicide spikes.
