    摘要: A capping layer (118) is used during an anneal to form fully silicided NiSi gate electrodes (120). The capping layer (118) comprises a material with an affinity for boron, such as TiN. The capping layer (118) serves as a boron trap that reduces the interface boron concentration for PMOS transistors without reducing the interface arsenic concentration for NMOS transistors.

    摘要: The electroplating of copper is the leading technology for forming copper lines on integrated circuits. In the copper electroplating process a negative potential is applied to the semiconductor wafer with the surface of the semiconductor wafer acting as the cathode. The anode will be partially or wholly formed with copper. Both the anode and the semiconductor will be exposed to a solution comprising copper electrolytes. By reducing the temperature of the copper electrolytes solution below 25° C. the rate of self annealing grain growth will increase reducing the final resistively of the copper lines.

    摘要: A method for making a transistor 20 that includes using a transition metal nitride layer 200 and/or a SOG layer 220 to protect the source/drain regions 60 from silicidation during the silicidation of the gate electrode 90. The SOG layer 210 is planarized to expose the transition metal nitride layer 200 or the gate electrode 93 before the gate silicidation process. If a transition metal nitride layer 200 is used, then it is removed from the top of the gate electrode 93 before the full silicidation of the gate electrode 90.
