Al2O3 grown by atomic layer deposition could be proposed as a nonactive layer for back end processes in view of the integration of scaled phase change memory devices. In this paper we report on thermal characterization from 50 to 600 degrees C of amorphous Al2O3 thin films grown on thermally oxidized silicon substrate at a temperature of 100 degrees C and capped with a 30nm thick Pt layer. The effects of low temperature deposition and of a post-deposition rapid thermal annealing process (RTP) on the thermal properties of the films are investigated using a modulated photo-thermal radiometry technique coupled with post-annealing morphological characterizations. Degassing process occurring at high temperature greatly affects the film surface quality, though measurements of the films after RTP show that the thermal conductivity of amorphous Al2O3 increases as a function of temperature from 1.8WK(-1)m(-1) at 50 degrees C to 3.3WK(-1)m(-1) at 600 degrees C. At the same time, the value of the thermal boundary resistance at the Pt-Al2O3 interface decreases from 1.02x10(-7)Km(2)W(-1) at 50 degrees C to 4.8x10(-8)Km(2)W(-1) at 600 degrees C.
