Abstract

Direct write of W on bare Si and native SiO2/Si substrates has been investigated in an laser chemical vapor deposition (LCVD) system. W deposits on bare Si surface via the Si and/or H2 reduction of WF6 were self-limited in thickness to 200 - 600 Å in both cases. Auger electron spectroscopic analysis showed that Si-H bonds could be poisoning the further growth of W. W deposits on native SiO2/Si were only obtainable via the H2 reduction of WF6 in our laser direct-write system. Our experimental kinetic study indicated that HF desorption from the surface is the rate-controlling step for W deposition via the H2 reduction of WF6. The as-deposited W line deposits were 2 - 10 μm wide, 0.2 - 6 μm thick with resistiiities in the range of 11 - 56 μΩ-cm. Growth rates as high as 2.2 mm/s have been achieved.
