摘要: Void formation in tungsten lines in a three-dimensional memory device can be prevented by providing polycrystalline aluminum oxide liners in portions of lateral recesses that are laterally spaced from backside trenches by a distance grater than a predefined lateral offset distance. Tungsten nucleates on the polycrystalline aluminum oxide liners prior to nucleating on a metallic liner layer. Thus, tungsten layers can be deposited from the center portion of each backside recess, and the growth of tungsten can proceed toward the backside trenches. By forming the tungsten layers without voids, structural integrity of the three-dimensional memory device can be enhanced.

摘要: Memory stack structures are formed through an alternating stack of insulating layers and sacrificial material layers. Backside recesses are formed by removal of the sacrificial material layers selective to the insulating layers and the memory stack structures. A barrier layer stack including a crystalline electrically conductive barrier layer and an amorphous barrier layer is formed in the backside recesses prior to formation of a metal fill material layer.

摘要: Word lines for a three-dimensional memory device can be formed by forming a stack of alternating layers comprising insulating layers and sacrificial material layers and memory stack structures vertically extending therethrough. Backside recesses are formed by removing the sacrificial material layers through a backside via trench. A metal silicide layer and metal portion are formed in the backside recesses to form the word lines including a metal portion, a metal silicide layer, and optionally, a silicon-containing layer.

摘要: A process chamber includes multiple partitions within a single continuous vacuum enclosure. Each of the multiple partitions is defined by respective distinct volumes within the single continuous vacuum enclosure that are connected thereamongst for unhindered movement of a substrate therethrough. The multiple partitions are configured to provide different process gases or purge gases to the substrate as the substrate cycles through the multiple positions. The process can cycle through a first deposition step that deposits a first material on the substrate in a first position and a second deposition step that deposits a second material on the substrate in a second position within each cycle. Alternatively or additionally, the process spaces can include at least one precursor treatment space and at least one reaction space.
