摘要:
The dielectric constants of SiC and SiCN that are currently the subjects of much investigation are both 4.5 to 5 or so and that of SiOC, 2.8 to 3.0 or so. With further miniaturization of the interconnection size and the spacing of interconnections brought about by the reduction in device size, there have arisen strong demands that dielectric constants should be further reduced. Furthermore, because the etching selection ratio of SiOC to SiCN as well as that of SiOC to SiC are small, if SiCN or SiC is used as the etching stopper film, the surface of the metal interconnection layer may be oxidized at the time of photoresist removal, which gives rise to a problem of high contact resistance. The present invention relates to an organic film made of one of SiOCH, SiCHN and SiCH that is formed using, as a source, a polyorganosilane whose C/Si ratio is at least 5 or greater and molecular weight is 100 or greater, and a semiconductor device wherein such an organic insulating film is used, and more particularly to a semiconductor device having a trench structure.
摘要:
A technology for inhibiting the dielectric breakdown occurred in a semiconductor device is provided. A semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor substrate (not shown), an interlayer insulating film 102 formed on the semiconductor substrate and a multiple-layered insulating film 140 provided on the interlayer insulating film 102. The semiconductor device comprises an electric conductor, which is provided to extend through the multiple-layered insulating film 140 and includes a Cu film 120 and a barrier metal film 118. The barrier metal film 118 is provided so as to cover side surfaces and a bottom surface of the Cu film 120. This semiconductor device comprises an insulating film 116, which is disposed between the multiple-layered insulating film 140 and the electric conductor (i.e., Cu film 120 and barrier metal film 118).

摘要:
A semiconductor device having improved adhesiveness between films composing an interlayer insulating film is presented by providing multilayered films in the interlayer insulating films having film density distribution, in which the film density is gradually changes. A SiOC film is deposited to a thickness of 300 nm via a plasma CVD process, in which a flow rate of trimethylsilane gas is stepwise increased. In this case, the film density of the deposited SiOC film is gradually decreased by stepwise increasing the flow rate of trimethylsilane gas. Since trimethylsilane contains methyl group, trimethylsilane has more bulky molecular structure in comparison with monosilane or the like. Thus, the film density is decreased by increasing the amount of trimethylsilane in the reactant gas.

An object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device which comprises a barrier film having a high etching selection ratio of the interlayer insulating film thereto, a good preventive function against the Cu diffusion, a low dielectric constant and excellent adhesiveness to the Cu interconnection and a manufacturing method thereof.The barrier film (for instance, a second barrier film 6) disposed between the interconnection or the via plug and its overlying interlayer insulating film is made to have a layered structure made of a plurality of films containing silicon and carbon (preferably, silicon, carbon and nitrogen), with different carbon contents, and, in particular, a low-carbon-concentration film 6a with a small carbon content is set to be a lower layer therein and a high-carbon-concentration film 6b with a large carbon content is set to be an upper layer therein, whereby the effectual prevention against the Cu diffusion, a high etching selection ratio and good adhesiveness to the Cu interconnection can be certainly provided by the presence of the low-carbon-concentration film 6a, while the overall dielectric constant can be well reduced by the presence of the high-carbon-concentration film 6b.
