Description

A study is made of the thermal stability of a range of refractory metals and their silicides on GaAs. Particular emphasis is laid on the effects of transient annealing with temperatures up to 1050 0C. Using the technique of Rutherford backscattering the results for the metallisation systems Ta, W, TaSix, WSix, and VSix are compared and indicate the superior properties of the refractory silicides.
