Preparation of precision thin film resistor sputtered by magnetron

IC용 초정밀 박막저항소자의 제조와 특성연구

To develope a high precision TiAIN thin film resistor, TiAIN films were deposited on A1$_{2}$03 substrates by reactive planar magnetron cosputtering from Ti and Al targets in an Ar-N$_{2}$ atmosphere. The characteristics of the TiAIN thin film were controlled by changing of the R.F. power on Ti and Al targets, and the N$_{2}$ partial pressure. The high precision TiAIN thin film resistor with TCR(Temperature Coefficient of Resistance) of less than 10ppm/.deg. C was obtained under the R.F. power condition of 160(w)/240(w) to Ti and Al targets at the N$_{2}$ partial pressure of 7*10$^{-5}$ Torr. The composition of these films were investigated by XRD, SEM and EDS.
