Improved electrical performance of Erbium silicide Schottky diodes formed by pre-RTA amorphization of Si by Tang, L. J., Tan, Eu Jin, Pey, Kin Leong, Chi, Dong Zhi, Lee, Pooi See

“…Erbium silicide Schottky diodes formed on Si(001) substrate using rapid thermal annealing method show degraded Schottky-barrier height ϕ_Beff and ideality factor due to the presence of silicide-induced microstructural defects which are likely sources of trap states. A method to improve the ϕ_Beff and of the diodes utilizing in situ Ar plasma cleaning to induce a light amorphization of the Si(001) substrate is proposed. …”
