摘要
Thin film resistors have been manufactured to evaluate the electrical performance characteristics of AlCuMo thin films. The films were prepared on Al2O3 substrates at room temperature as a function of Mo concentration by DC magnetron sputtering and were then annealed at various temperatures in air and N-2 atmospheres. The effect of annealing temperature on the electrical properties of the films was systematically investigated. Increase in Mo content produced a decrease in temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR), an increase in resistivity (rho) and an improvement in long term stability (Delta Omega/Omega) of the films. TCR varied from negative to positive and further improvements in resistance stability of the films were also achieved through increasing annealing temperature in both air and N-2 atmospheres. A temperature region is proposed where 'near zero' TCR (ppm/degrees C) and long term stability of better than 0.2% can be realised.
