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:
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.

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.

A semiconductor device includes an interlayer insulating film formed on or over a semiconductor substrate. An opening is formed in the interlayer insulating film and reaches a lower layer metal wiring conductor. A metal plug is formed by filling the opening with Cu containing metal via a barrier metal. The interlayer insulating film includes the insulating film which includes a carbon containing silicon oxide (SiOCH) film which has Si—CH2 bond in the carbon containing silicon oxide film. The proportion of Si—CH2 bond (1360 cm-1) to Si—CH3 bond (1270 cm-1) in the insulating film is in a range from 0.03 to 0.05 measured as a peak height ratio of FTIR spectrum.

An object of the present invention is to improve the inter-layer adhesiveness of the diffusion barrier film while maintaining the lower dielectric constant of the diffusion barrier film. A diffusion barrier film for a copper interconnect comprises an insulating material containing silicon, carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen as constituent elements, and also containing Si—H bond, Si—C bond and methylene bond (—CH2—). The insulating material involves I2/I1 of not lower than 0.067 and I3/I1 of not higher than 0.0067 appeared in an infrared absorption spectrum; where I1 is defined as an absorption area of the infrared absorption band having a peak near 810 cm−1, I2 is defined as an absorption area of the infrared absorption band having a peak near 2,120 cm−1 and I3 is defined as an absorption area of the infrared absorption band having a peak near 1,250 cm−1.
