Abstract
Metallization of integrated devices using ruthenium as a metallization material results in well-adhering contacts to source and drain regions as well as to gate oxide. Ruthenium is similarly suited as a diffusion barrier metallization between, e.g., silicon and aluminum and as an interconnection metallization material. And, as a diffusion barrier material, ruthenium dioxide may be used.
