Abstract: The structure of a semiconductor device with source/drain contact structures and via structures and a method of fabricating the semiconductor device are disclosed. A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a source/drain (S/D) region on a substrate, forming a S/D contact structure on the S/D region, and forming a via structure on the S/D contact structure. The forming of the via structure includes forming a via opening on the S/D contact structure, forming a non-metal passivation layer on sidewalls of the via opening, and depositing a via plug within the via opening in a bottom-up deposition process.

Abstract: A structure includes a transistor including a first source/drain region, a source/drain contact plug over and electrically coupling to the first source/drain region, and a via over and contacting the source/drain contact plug. The via has a bottom portion having a first length, and an upper portion having a second length. The first length is greater than the second length. Both of the first length and the second length are measured in a same direction parallel to a top surface of the source/drain contact plug.

Abstract: Examples of a technique for forming a dielectric material for an integrated circuit are provided herein. In an example, an integrated circuit workpiece is received that includes a recess. A first dielectric precursor is deposited in the recess. The first dielectric precursor includes a non-semiconductor component. A second dielectric precursor is deposited in the recess on the first dielectric precursor, and an annealing process is performed such that a portion of the non-semiconductor component of the first dielectric precursor diffuses into the second dielectric precursor. The non-semiconductor component may include oxygen, and the annealing process may be performed in one of a vacuum or an inert gas environment.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a method for forming liner-free or barrier-free conductive structures. The method includes depositing an etch stop layer on a cobalt contact disposed on a substrate, depositing a dielectric on the etch stop layer, etching the dielectric and the etch stop layer to form an opening that exposes a top surface of the cobalt contact, and etching the exposed top surface of the cobalt contact to form a recess in the cobalt contact extending laterally under the etch stop layer. The method further includes depositing a ruthenium metal to substantially fill the recess and the opening, and annealing the ruthenium metal to form an oxide layer between the ruthenium metal and the dielectric.
