摘要:
A method (and semiconductor device) of fabricating a semiconductor device provides a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure or region by implanting ions in the STI region. After implantation, the region (of substrate material and ions of a different element) is thermally annealed producing a dielectric material operable for isolating two adjacent field-effect transistors (FET). This eliminates the conventional steps of removing substrate material to form the trench and refilling the trench with dielectric material. Implantation of nitrogen ions into an STI region adjacent a p-type FET applies a compressive stress to the transistor channel region to enhance transistor performance. Implantation of oxygen ions into an STI region adjacent an n-type FET applies a tensile stress to the transistor channel region to enhance transistor performance.

A method of forming a barrier layer and cap comprised of CuSiN for an interconnect. We provide an interconnect opening in a dielectric layer over a semiconductor structure. We form a CuSiN barrier layer over the sidewalls and bottom of the interconnect opening by reacting with the first copper layer. We then form an interconnect over the CuSiN layer filling the interconnect opening. We can form a CuSiN cap layer on the top surface of the interconnect.
