摘要:
Interconnect structures possessing an organosilicate glass interlayer dielectric material with minimal stoichiometeric modification and optionally an intact organic adhesion promoter for use in semiconductor devices are provided herein. The interconnect structure is capable of delivering improved device performance, functionality and reliability owing to the reduced effective dielectric constant of the stack compared with that of those conventionally employed because of the use of a sacrificial polymeric material deposited onto the dielectric and optional organic adhesion promoter during the barrier open step done prior to ashing the patterning material. This sacrificial film protects the dielectric and optional organic adhesion promoter from modification/consumption during the subsequent ashing step during which the polymeric film is removed.

摘要:
An interconnect structure having partially self aligned vias with an interlayer dielectric layer on a substrate, containing at least two conducting metal lines that traverse parallel to the substrate and at least two conducting metal vias that are orthogonal to the substrate. A method of producing the self aligned vias by depositing an interlayer dielectric layer onto a substrate, depositing at least one hardmask onto the interlayer dielectric layer, lithographically forming a via pattern with elongated via features and lithographically forming a line pattern in either order, then either transferring the line patterns first into the interlayer dielectric layer forming line features or transferring the via pattern first into the interlayer dielectric layer as long as the patterns overlap to forming self aligned via features, depositing conducting metals and filling regions corresponding to the line and via features, and planarizing and removing excess metal from the line and via features.

摘要:
A method for manufacturing a structure includes providing a structure having an insulator layer with at least one interconnect and forming a sub lithographic template mask on the insulator layer. A selective etching step is used for etching the insulator layer through the sub lithographic template mask to form sub lithographic features near the at least one interconnect. A supra lithographic blocking mask may also be utilized. In another aspect, the method includes forming pinch off sections of sub lithographic size formed in a capping layer on the insulator layer. A semiconductor structure includes an insulator layer having at least one interconnect feature and at least one column formed in the insulator layer. A plurality of sub lithographic features formed on a top portion of the insulator layer and communicating with the at least one column is also provided. The plurality of sub lithographic features have a cross section or diameter less than any of the at least one column. A gap may be prohibited from forming on or near scribe lines or vias.
