General Description

Tungsten silicide is a chemical compound made from tungsten and silicon, with the chemical formula WSi2. It is a refractory material, meaning that it can withstand high temperatures without melting or deforming, and it is commonly used in the semiconductor industry as a thin film material for integrated circuit fabrication. Tungsten silicide has a high electrical conductivity, making it ideal for use in microelectronics. It also has good compatibility with silicon, allowing it to be used as a diffusion barrier and as a contact material in semiconductor devices. Additionally, tungsten silicide is used in the production of thin-film resistors, as it has a high temperature coefficient of resistance and is stable at high temperatures.
