    Abstract: A method of forming an integrated circuit structure includes forming a first insulation region and a second insulation region in a semiconductor substrate and facing each other; and forming an epitaxial semiconductor region having a reversed T-shape. The epitaxial semiconductor region includes a horizontal plate including a bottom portion between and adjoining the first insulation region and the second insulation region, and a fin over and adjoining the horizontal plate. The bottom of the horizontal plate contacts the semiconductor substrate. The method further includes forming a gate dielectric on a top surface and at least top portions of sidewalls of the fin; and forming a gate electrode over the gate dielectric.

    Abstract: A composite barrier layer provides superior barrier qualities and superior adhesion properties to both dielectric materials and conductive materials as the composite barrier layer extends throughout the semiconductor device. The composite barrier layer may be formed in regions where it is disposed between two conductive layers and in regions where it is disposed between a conductive layer and a dielectric material. The composite barrier layer may consist of various pluralities of layers and the arrangement of layers that form the composite barrier layer may differ as the barrier layer extends throughout different sections of the device. Amorphous layers of the composite barrier layer are generally disposed to form boundaries with dielectric materials and crystalline layers are generally disposed to form boundaries with conductive materials such as interconnect materials.

    Abstract: A process for improving the adhesion between an underlying copper structure, and overlying materials and structures, has been developed. The process features formation of a tantalum nitride layer on a copper structure, wherein the copper structure is located in a damascene type opening. To obtain the maximum adhesion benefit the tantalum nitride layer is formed via an atomic deposition layer procedure, performed at specific deposition conditions. The adhesion between the underlying copper structure and overlying materials such as a silicon nitride etch stop layer, as well the adhesion between the lower level copper structure and overlying upper level metal interconnect structures, is improved as a result of the presence of the atomic layer deposited tantalum nitride layer.
