description A novel salicide technology to improve the thermal stability of the conventional Ni silicide has been developed by employing Ni(Pt) alloy salicidation. This technique provides an effective avenue to overcome the low thermal budget (<700 °C) of the conventional Ni salicidation by forming Ni(Pt)Si. The addition of Pt has enhanced the thermal stability of NiSi. Improved sheet resistance of the salicided narrow poly-Si and active lines was achieved up to 750 °C and 700 °C for as-deposited Ni(Pt) thickness of 30 nm and 15 nm, respectively. This successfully extends the rapid thermal processing (RTP) windowby delaying the nucleation of NiSi2 and agglomeration. Implementation of Ni(Pt) alloyed silicidation was demonstrated on PMOSFETs with high drive current and low junction leakage.
