Abstract
Molybdenum is a low-resistivity transition metal that can be applied to silicon devices using Si-metal electrode structures and thin film solar cell electrodes. We investigate the deposition of metal Mo thin film by plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD). $Mo(CO)_6$ and $H_2$ plasma are used as precursor. $H_2$ plasma is induced between ALD cycles for reduction of $Mo(CO)_6$ and Mo film is deposited on Si substrate at $300^{\circ}C$. Through variation of PE-ALD conditions such as precursor pulse time, plasma pulse time and plasma power, we find that these conditions result in low resistivity. The resistivity is affected by Mo pulse time. We can find the reason through analyzing XPS data according to Mo pulse time. The thickness uniformity is affected by plasma power. The lowest resistivity is $176{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ at $Mo(CO)_6$ pulse time 3s. The thickness uniformity of metal Mo thin film deposited by PE-ALD shows a value of less than 3% below the plasma power of 200 W.
