    摘要: An iridium encased copper interconnect comprises an iridium liner formed within a trench in a dielectric layer, wherein the iridium liner is formed directly on the dielectric layer, a copper interconnect formed on the iridium liner, and an iridium capping layer formed on the copper interconnect. The iridium encased copper interconnect may be fabricated by providing a semiconductor substrate in a reactor, wherein the semiconductor substrate includes a trench etched into a dielectric layer, pulsing trimethylaluminum into the reactor proximate to the semiconductor substrate, pulsing an iridium precursor into the reactor proximate to the semiconductor substrate, wherein the trimethylaluminum enables an iridium species to deposit directly on the dielectric layer, depositing a copper seed layer on the iridium species layer using an electroless deposition process, and depositing a bulk copper layer on the copper seed layer using an electroplating process.

    摘要: Described herein are metal gate electrode stacks including a low resistance metal cap in contact with a metal carbonitride diffusion barrier layer, wherein the metal carbonitride diffusion barrier layer is tuned to a particular work function to also serve as a work function metal for a pMOS transistor. In an embodiment, the work function-tuned metal carbonitride diffusion barrier prohibits a low resistance metal cap layer of the gate electrode stack from migrating into the MOS junction. In a further embodiment of the present invention, the work function of the metal carbonitride barrier film is modulated to be p-type with a pre-selected work function by altering a nitrogen concentration in the film.

    摘要: Copper precursors useful for depositing copper or copper-containing films on substrates, e.g., microelectronic device substrates or other surfaces. The precursors includes copper compounds of various classes, including copper borohydrides, copper compounds with cyclopentadienyl-type ligands, copper compounds with cyclopentadienyl-type and isocyanide ligands, and stabilized copper hydrides. The precursors can be utilized in solid or liquid forms that are volatilized to form precursor vapor for contacting with the substrate, to form deposited copper by techniques such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD) or rapid vapor deposition (digital CVD).
