    摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide an improved process for depositing tungsten-containing materials. In one embodiment, the method for forming a tungsten-containing material on a substrate includes forming an adhesion layer containing titanium nitride on a dielectric layer disposed on a substrate, forming a tungsten nitride intermediate layer on the adhesion layer, wherein the tungsten nitride intermediate layer contains tungsten nitride and carbon. The method further includes forming a tungsten barrier layer (e.g., tungsten or tungsten-carbon material) from the tungsten nitride intermediate layer by thermal decomposition during a thermal annealing process (e.g., temperature from about 700° C. to less than 1,000° C.). Subsequently, the method includes optionally forming a nucleation layer on the tungsten barrier layer, optionally exposing the tungsten barrier layer and/or the nucleation layer to a reducing agent during soak processes, and forming a tungsten bulk layer on or over the tungsten barrier layer and/or the nucleation layer.

    摘要: A semiconductor device comprises a buried gate formed in a mat and in an adjacent dummy region. A space larger than is conventional is formed in a dummy region of a mat edge where the buried gate is to be created. This larger space inhibits shortening of an end of a buried gate and reduction in pattern size attributable to lithographic distortion arising between patterned (mat) and unpatterned (dummy) regions. Device reliability is thereby improved by avoiding gap-fill defects of a gate material.

    摘要: A transistor includes a first fin structure and at least a second fin structure formed on a substrate. A deep trench area is formed between the first and second fin structures. The deep trench area extends through an insulator layer of the substrate and a semiconductor layer of the substrate. A high-k metal gate is formed within the deep trench area. A polysilicon layer is formed within the deep trench area adjacent to the metal layer. The polysilicon layer and the high-k metal layer are recessed below a top surface of the insulator layer. A poly strap in the deep trench area is formed on top of the high-k metal gate and the polysilicon material. The poly strap is dimensioned to be below a top surface of the first and second fin structures. The first fin structure and the second fin structure are electrically coupled to the poly strap.

    摘要: A method for forming a buried split word line structure is provided. The method comprises the following steps. At first, a substrate having a trench therein is provided. Two liners are formed to a first thickness on sidewalls of the trench. Then, the trench is filled with a first insulating layer to a first height. The two liners are removed. Finally, a conductive material is deposited to a second height between and adjacent to the first insulating layer and the trench. Here, the first height is greater than the second height.
