    Abstract: A method for fabricating an integrated circuit includes providing a substrate, forming a low-k dielectric layer over the substrate, etching the low-k dielectric layer to form an opening in the low-k dielectric layer wherein an underlying metal is exposed through the opening, performing a remote plasma treatment to the substrate wherein a plasma used for the remote plasma treatment is generated from a plasma generator separated from a chamber in which the substrate is located, forming a diffusion barrier layer in the opening, and filling the opening with a conductive material. The method preferably includes an in-situ plasma treatment in a same chamber as the step of etching the low-k dielectric layer.

    Abstract: A barrier layer and a fabrication thereof are disclosed. The barrier layer comprises at least one barrier material selected from the group consisting of Ta, W, Ti, Ru, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Cr and Mo and at least one component of oxygen, nitrogen or carbon. A ratio of the component to the barrier material is not less than about 0.45. The fabrication method of the barrier layer applies a working pressure for forming the barrier layer from about 0.5 mTorr to about 200 mTorr substantially without forming crystalline material therein.
