Abstract

The motivation for this study arose from the potential to control electrical properties, such as the resistivity and the TCR, by fabricating TaN-metal nanocomposite films with electron scattering by nanoparticles in the tantalum-nitride matrix. The present work investigated the correlation between the electrical properties and the microstructures of the nanocomposite films. Co-deposited TaN-Ag and TaN-Cu nanocomposite thin films under a 55 % N 2partial pressure at a Ta power density of 8.78 W/cm 2 and at various Ag and Cu power densities were generated.
