Abstract

See full text

A method of measuring temperature of momentary anneals in the temperature range of around 900.degree. C. is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of providing a substrate of doped polysilicon or single crystal silicon, applying a blocking layer on a portion of the substrate, selectively forming silicide on the substrate adjacent opposite ends of the blocking layer to define a resistor, subjecting the resistor to a momentary anneal in the temperature range around 900.degree. C., and measuring interfacial resistance between the silicide and the substrate after the annealing step, the resistance correlating to anneal temperature.
