高锡含量锗锡合金和镍反应的形貌研究

Morphology research of high Sn concentration GeSn alloy reacted with Nickel

  • 摘要: 本文详细研究了高锡含量锗锡合金(Ge0.92Sn0.08)与镍在退火条件下的反应。通过表层电阻测试、原子力显微镜和透射电镜等表征手段,我们分别研究了镍锗锡材料在300℃、400℃、500℃温度下退火后的表面和界面形貌。研究表明:与镍和锗反应相比,镍和锗锡材料反应生成的镍锗锡薄膜热稳定性变差,退火温度400℃后镍锗锡薄膜表层电阻就迅速增加,样品表面变得不连续,团聚为平均长度200nm左右的岛状晶粒,样品表面和界面与电学性质都遭到了破坏。

     

    Abstract: In this paper,we report a study of Nickel reacted with high-Sn concentration Ge Sn materials. Nickel stanogermanide(NiGeSn) films were formed at different annealing temperatures. It is shown that the NiGeSn film has a smooth surface when annealed below 300 oC. Compared to Ni germanide films,it is found that NiGeSn films have a higher Rsh at formation temperatures ranging from 400℃ to 600 ℃ due to the agglomeration of NiGeSn grains. Our findings may have some potential applications for the new electronic and optical devices based on the GeSn materials.
