摘要: Cobalt is added to a copper seed layer, a copper plating layer, or a copper capping layer in order to modify the microstructure of copper lines and vias. The cobalt can be in the form of a copper-cobalt alloy or as a very thin cobalt layer. The grain boundaries configured in bamboo microstructure in the inventive metal interconnect structure shut down copper grain boundary diffusion. The composition of the metal interconnect structure after grain growth contains from about 1 ppm to about 10% of cobalt in atomic concentration. Grain boundaries extend from a top surface of a copper-cobalt alloy line to a bottom surface of the copper-cobalt alloy line, and are separated from any other grain boundary by a distance greater than a width of the copper-cobalt alloy line.

摘要: A method for plating copper conductors on an electronic substrate and devices formed are disclosed. In the method, an electroplating copper bath that is filled with an electroplating solution kept at a temperature between about 0° C. and about 18° C. is first provided. A copper layer on the electronic substrate immersed in the electroplating solution is then plated either in a single step or in a dual-step deposition process. The dual-step deposition process is more suitable for depositing copper conductors in features that have large aspect ratios, such as a via hole in a dual damascene structure having an aspect ratio of diameter/depth of more than ⅓ or as high as {fraction (1/10)}. Various electroplating parameters are utilized to provide a short resistance transient in either the single step deposition or the dual-step deposition process. These parameters include the bath temperature, the bath agitation, the additive concentration in the plating bath, the plating current density utilized, the deposition rate of the copper film and the total thickness of the copper film deposited.
