The Failure Mechanism of MOCVD TiN Diffusion Barrier at high Temperature
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
By using TDEAT and ammonia gas, MOCVD TiN films were grown at 300°C and 30torr.After annealing in a vacuum furnace at 500°C, 550°C, and 600°C, the TiN films were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). After annealing at 550°C, both hexagonal and cubic AIN phase were found at the interface between Al and TiN films. A Ti rich phase such as Al3Ti was also found at Al side. The failure mechanism during high temperature annealing is discussed.
