Abstract

We propose an approach for reduction of the contact resistance by inducing dielectric breakdown in a Si-dielectric-metal contact stack. We observe a 36% reduction in the contact resistance as well as an improvement in the uniformity in the distribution after dielectric breakdown. The results open up interesting device applications in complementary metal oxide semiconductor technology.
