| Abstract | We have demonstrated a new technique for direct patterning and formation of cobalt silicide structures using focused ion beam implantation. This mask-free-fabrication technique takes advantage of the influence on the kinetics of ion-beam mixing and properties of thin barrier oxides during silicide line formation. Silicide structures with dimensions of the order of 170 nm were produced on (100) silicon substrates. The process involves the ion implantation of 200 keV $As^{++}$ through a thin cobalt film on $SiO_{2}/Si$ structure. A selective reaction barrier at the Si/Co interface comprising of a thin (∼2 nm) oxide $(SiO_{2}),$ prevents unwanted reactions with silicon. Ion-beam mixing was instrumental in fracturing of the oxide layer; thereby, allowing the migration of metal atoms across the Si/Co boundary for the silicidation reaction to proceed during subsequent rapid thermal anneal treatments. Diffusion controlled reactions advanced rapidly in the implanted areas, requiring a two-step anneal sequence to inhibit reaction elsewhere. A threshold dose of 3 Ø $10^{15}$ $cm^{-2}$ was required for process initiation. Four-terminal resistance test structures were formed for electrical measurements. Resistivity obtained ranged on the order of 12 to 23 μΩ-cm. Application of this method can facilitate a wide variety of silicide structures. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
