AbstractWe discuss the electrical resistivity and thermal stability of smooth thin silver (Ag) films characterized by significantly lower root mean square (RMS) surface roughness, peak-to-valley height distribution, and grain-size distribution. The smooth film was prepared by using a very thin (~1-2 nm) nucleation layer of evaporated germanium (Ge) prior to Ag evaporation. The sheet resistance of the rough silver (10nm Ag) film is RAg-rough ~51 Ω/sq compared to the smooth silver (10nm Ag/2nm Ge) film with R Ag-smooth ~22 Ω/sq. The smooth Ag is also shown to be thermally more stable for temperatures less than 120°C. © 2008 IEEE.
