Kw. Park et al., Low temperature metal-organic chemical vapor deposition of Ru thin films as electrode for high dielectric capacitors, INTEGR FERR, 30(1-4), 2000, pp. 45-52
Low temperature metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process of
Ru films for use as electrode material was studied using a noble dome type
reactor, liquid delivery technique and a new precursor. The films were grow
n at temperatures ranging from 275 degreesC to 480 degreesC in which film g
rowth was controlled by a surface chemical reaction with a small activation
energy of 0.21 eV. The root-mean-squared surface roughness was as low as 2
3 Angstrom for a Film grown at 290 degreesC on a SiO2 surface.
