    摘要: A plasma sputter chamber and process for sputtering ruthenium and tantalum at low pressure or with self-sustained sputtering (SSS). The source magnetron is strongly unbalanced and of sufficient size to project the unbalanced magnetic field toward the wafer to increase the ionization probability. Sputter etch uniformity is increased by the use of an auxiliary magnet system rotating with the source magnetron but placed towards the center of rotation. It may be a larger, nearly balanced auxiliary magnetron with an outer polarity matching that of the source magnetron or an array of magnets of that polarity. An integrated process includes a directional deposition of the refractory metal and its nitride, a sputter etch, and a flash deposition.

    摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide processes for selectively forming a ruthenium-containing film on a copper surface over exposed dielectric surfaces. Thereafter, a copper bulk layer may be deposited on the ruthenium-containing film. In one embodiment, a method for forming layers on a substrate is provided which includes positioning a substrate within a processing chamber, wherein the substrate contains a copper-containing surface and a dielectric surface, exposing the substrate to a ruthenium precursor to selectively form a ruthenium-containing film over the copper-containing surface while leaving exposed the dielectric surface, and depositing a copper bulk layer over the ruthenium-containing film.

    摘要: Methods of controlling deposition of metal on field regions of a substrate in an electroplating process are provided. In one aspect, a dielectric layer is deposited under plasma on the field region of a patterned substrate, leaving a conductive surface exposed in the openings. Electroplating on the field region is reduced or eliminated, resulting in void-free features and minimal excess plating. In another aspect, a resistive layer, which may be a metal, is used in place of the dielectric. In a further aspect, the surface of the conductive field region is modified to change its chemical potential relative to the sidewalls and bottoms of the openings.
