A method of forming a Cu wiring in a trench or hole formed in a substrate is provided. The method includes forming a barrier film on the surface of the trench or hole, forming a Ru film on the barrier film, and embedding copper in the trench or hole by forming a Cu film on the Ru film using PVD while heating the substrate such that migration of copper into the trench or hole occurs.

In a Cu wiring forming method which is followed by a post-process including a treatment of a temperature of 500° C. or higher, an adhesion film made of a metal having a lattice spacing that differs from the lattice spacing of Cu by 10% or less is formed on a substrate having a trench and/or a hole in the surface such that the adhesion film is deposited on at least the bottom and side surfaces of the trench and/or hole. A Cu film is formed on the adhesion film to fill the trench and/or hole. An annealing process is performed on the substrate on which the Cu film has been formed at 350° C. or higher. The CU film is polished to leave only the part of the Cu film which corresponds to the trench and/or hole. A cap is formed on the polished Cu film to form a Cu wiring.

A method, computer readable medium, and system for vapor deposition on a substrate that disposes a substrate in a process space of a processing system that is vacuum isolated from a transfer space of the processing system, processes the substrate at either of a first position or a second position in the process space while maintaining vacuum isolation from the transfer space, and deposits a material on said substrate at either the first position or the second position. As such, the system includes a first assembly having a process space configured to facilitate material deposition, a second assembly coupled to the first assembly and having a transfer space to facilitate transfer of the substrate into and out of the deposition system, a substrate stage connected to the second assembly and configured to support and translate the substrate between a first position in the transfer space to a second position in the process space. The system includes a sealing assembly configured to impede gas flow between the process space and the transfer space during translation of the substrate within the process space.

A semiconductor device manufacturing method includes: modifying a surface of a burying recess, of which surface is hydrophobic and which is formed in a dielectric film, to a hydrophilic state by supplying a plasma containing H ions and H radicals or a plasma containing NHx (x being 1, 2 or 3) ions and NHx radicals to the dielectric film formed on a substrate and containing silicon, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, a bottom portion of the burying recess being exposed with a lower conductive layer; and directly forming an adhesion film formed of a Ru film on the hydrophilic surface of the recess. The method further includes burying copper forming a conductive path in the recess.

A method for forming a modified TaC or TaCN film that may be utilized as a barrier film for Cu metallization. The method includes disposing a substrate in a process chamber of a plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) system configured to perform a PEALD process, depositing a TaC or TaCN film on the substrate using the PEALD process, and modifying the deposited TaC or TaCN film by exposing the deposited TaC or TaCN film to plasma excited hydrogen or atomic hydrogen or a combination thereof in order to remove carbon from at least the plasma exposed portion of the deposited TaCN film. The method further includes forming a metal film on the modified TaCN film, where the modified TaCN film provides stronger adhesion to the metal film than the deposited TaCN film. According to one embodiment, a TaCN film is deposited from alternating exposures of TAIMATA and plasma excited hydrogen.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a technology for depositing a thin metal film by using a plasma sputtering technique on a top surface of a target object, e.g., a semiconductor wafer or the like, and on a surface of a recess opened at the top surface. The film deposition method is characterized in that a film deposition process to deposit a metal film on a sidewall of the recess by generating metal ions by way of making a metal target sputter with a plasma generated from a discharge gas in the processing container and by applying to the mounting table a bias power to cause a metal film deposition based on a metal ion attraction and a sputter etching based on the plasma generated from the discharge gas simultaneously on the top surface of the target object.
摘要:
A method for generating metal ions by sputtering a metal target (56) by plasma, attracting the metal ions by bias power to a target object S which is to be processed and is mounted on a mounting table (20) in a processing vessel, and depositing a metal film (74) on the target object having a recess (2) thus filling the recess. The bias power is set to realize such a state as the metal deposition rate by attraction of metal ions is substantially balanced with the etching rate of plasma sputter etching on the surface of the target object. Consequently, the recess in the target object can be filled with metal without causing such a defect as void.
