Abstract

See full text

A process for making a semiconductor integrated circuit which has electrodes, contacts and interconnects composed of a multilayer structure including a layer of polycrystalline silicon with an overlying layer of a refractory metal silicide such as MoSi.sub.2 or WSi.sub.2. Adhesion of the metal silicide to the polysilicon is enhanced by forming a thin silicon oxide coating on the polysilicon before sputtering the metal silicide. The resulting structure has low resistance but retains the advantages of polysilicon on silicon.
