Abstract
TiN thin films were prepared by the ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) method on Si (100) substrate with the ion energy below 300 Volts. The effect of process parameters, including, ion incident angle, ion energy, and deposition temperature, on the preferred orientation, resistivity and microstructure of the films was examined. The results suggest that the ion-induced defects are the major factor contributing to the change of resistivity of TiN.
