ABSTRACT:
The formation of devices in semiconductor material. In one embodiment, a method of forming a semiconductor device is provided. The method comprises forming at least one hard mask overlaying at least one layer of resistive material. Forming at least one opening to a working surface of a silicon substrate of the semiconductor device. Cleaning the semiconductor device with a diluted HF/HCL process. After cleaning with the diluted HF/HCL process, forming a silicide contact junction in the at least one of the opening to the working surface of the silicon substrate and then forming interconnect metal layers.
