An investigation of structural phase transformation and electrical resistivity in Ta films
چکیده انگلیسی
In this work, we report the effect of substrate, film thickness and sputter pressure on the phase transformation and electrical resistivity in tantalum (Ta) films. The films were grown on Si(1 0 0) substrates with native oxides in place and glass substrates by varying the film thickness (t) and pressure of the working gas (pAr). X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that the formation of α and β phases in Ta films strongly depend on the choice of substrate, film thickness t and sputter pressure pAr. A stable α-phase was observed on Si(1 0 0) substrates for t ≤ 200 nm. Both α and β phases were found to grow on glass substrates at all thicknesses except t = 100 nm. All the films grown on Si(1 0 0) substrates for pAr ≤ 6.5 mTorr had α-phase with strong (1 1 0) texture normal to the film plane. The glass substrates promoted the formation of β-phase in all pAr except pAr = 5.5 mTorr. The resistivity ρ was observed to decrease with t, whereas ρ was increased with pAr on Si(1 0 0) substrates. In all films, the measured resistivity ρ was greater than the bulk resistivity. The resistivity ρ was influenced by the effects of surface roughness and grain size.
