Abstract

We have investigated the structural properties of thin films of reactively magnetron sputtered niobium nitride (NbN) under high-temperature annealing (with annealing temperatures ranging 850 to 950 ° C) and with different nitrogen contents in the working gas mixture. Prepared NbN films were characterized by Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The influence of rapid thermal annealing (RTA) on a change of the structure properties and surface morphology was investigated. The correlation between technological parameters and film properties, structure and composition were established.
