Abstract

ABSTRACTRu thin films were deposited on SiO2/Si and (Ba,Sr)TiO3 [BST]/Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates using Ru(C2H5C5H4)2 [Ru(EtCp)2] by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). To determine the effects of the solvent, C4H8O [tetrahydrofuran: THF], it was injected into the reaction chamber by the Direct Liquid Injection (DLI) system while Ru(EtCp)2 was input through the bubbler system. Also, Ru thin films were deposited using a liquid source, Ru(EtCp)2 dissolved in THF, delivered by the DLI system. The surface of the Ru thin films deposited on the BST substrate using only Ru(EtCp)2 through the bubbler system was very rough and milky, but the addition of THF made the surface of the films smooth and clean. In addition, Ru films deposited at 325°C using Ru(EtCp)2 dissolved in THF through the DLI system have a dense and smooth microstructure with resistivity as low as 15µωcm.
