NiCo 10 at%: A promising silicide alternative to NiPt 15 at% for thermal stability improvement in 3DVLSI integration

3D VLSI with a CoolCube TM process allows vertically stacking several layers of devices with a unique connecting via density above a million/mm2. The thermal budget allowed to process the top transistor is currently limited by NiPt silicide stability of the bottom transistor. To extend the upper transistors thermal process window, Pre-Amorphization Implant (PAI) and Si-Capping were used to improve the stability of NiPt 15% on SiC:P and SiGe 30% :B accesses. While PAI enhances the silicide stability on SiC:P substrate from 600°C 2h to 700°C 2h, neither PAI nor Si-Capping improve silicide stability on SiGe 30% :B. To provide a solution for P accesses stability, NiCo 10% silicidation has been developed. Combined with PAI and Si-Capping, the germano-silicide offers a higher stability (up to 600°C 2h) than its NiPtSi 15% counterpart.
