    Abstract: A method of tungsten deposition for dynamic random access memory (DRAM) applications is described. The DRAM devices typically include two electrodes separated by a dielectric material. At least one of the two electrodes comprises a tungsten-based material. The tungsten-based material may be formed using a cyclical deposition technique. Using the cyclical deposition technique, the tungsten-based material is formed by alternately adsorbing a tungsten-containing precursor and a reducing gas on a structure.

    Abstract: A method of forming a tungsten nucleation layer using a sequential deposition process. The tungsten nucleation layer is formed by reacting pulses of a tungsten-containing precursor and a reducing gas in a process chamber to deposit tungsten on the substrate. Thereafter, reaction by-products generated from the tungsten deposition are removed from the process chamber. After the reaction by-products are removed from the process chamber, a flow of the reducing gas is provided to the process chamber to react with residual tungsten-containing precursor remaining therein. Such a deposition process forms tungsten nucleation layers having good step coverage. The sequential deposition process of reacting pulses of the tungsten-containing precursor and the reducing gas, removing reaction by-products, and than providing a flow of the reducing gas to the process chamber may be repeated until a desired thickness for the tungsten nucleation layer is formed.

    Abstract: A processing chamber is adapted to perform a deposition process on a substrate. The chamber includes a pedestal adapted to hold a substrate during deposition and a gas mixing and distribution assembly mounted above the pedestal. The gas mixing and distribution assembly includes a face plate, a dispersion plate mounted above the face plate, and a mixing fixture mounted above the dispersion plate. The face plate is adapted to present an emissivity invariant configuration to the pedestal. The mixing fixture includes a mixing chamber to which a process gas is flowed and an outer chamber surrounding the mixing chamber. The processing chamber further includes an enclosure and a liner installed inside the enclosure and surrounding the pedestal. The liner defines a gap between the liner and the enclosure. The gap has a minimum width adjacent an exhaust port and a maximum width at a point that is diametrically opposite the exhaust port.

    Abstract: A method of film processing comprises forming an integrated titanium/titanium nitride (Ti/TiN) film structure having an intermediate layer. The intermediate layer comprises species containing Si, and preferably containing Si and Ti, such as titanium silicide (TiSix), or TiSixOy, among others. The intermediate layer protects the underlying Ti film against chemical attack during subsequent TiN deposition using a titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4)-based chemistry. The method allows reliable Ti/TiN film integration to be achieved with excellent TiN step coverage. For example, the film structure can be used as an effective barrier layer in integrated circuit fabrication.
