Capacitor structures for use in integrated circuits and methods of their manufacture. The capacitor structures include a bottom electrode, a top electrode and a dielectric layer interposed between the bottom electrode and the top electrode. The capacitor structures further include a metal oxide buffer layer interposed between the dielectric layer and at least one of the bottom and top electrodes. Each metal oxide buffer layer acts to improve capacitance and reduce capacitor leakage. The capacitors are suited for use as memory cells and apparatus incorporating such memory cells, as well as other integrated circuits.

Capacitor structures for use in integrated circuits and methods of their manufacture. The capacitor structures include a bottom electrode, a top electrode and a dielectric layer interposed between the bottom electrode and the top electrode. The capacitor structures further include a metal oxynitride barrier layer interposed between the dielectric layer and at least one of the bottom and top electrodes. Each metal oxynitride barrier layer acts to reduce undesirable oxidation of its associated electrode. Each metal oxynitride barrier layer can further aid in the repairing of oxygen vacancies in a metal oxide dielectric. The capacitors are suited for use as memory cells and apparatus incorporating such memory cells, as well as other integrated circuits.

Abstract:
A technique for more efficiently forming conductive elements, such as conductive layers and electrodes, using chemical vapor deposition. A conductive precursor gas, such as a platinum precursor gas, having organic compounds to improve step coverage is introduced into a chemical vapor deposition chamber. A reactant is also introduced into the chamber that reacts with residue organic compounds on the conductive element so as to remove the organic compounds from the nucleating sites to thereby permit more efficient subsequent chemical vapor deposition of conductive elements.
Abstract:
A method for forming a ruthenium metal layer comprises combining a ruthenium precursor with a measured amount of oxygen to form a ruthenium oxide layer. The ruthenium oxide is annealed in the presence of a hydrogen-rich gas to react the oxygen in the ruthenium oxide with hydrogen, which results in a ruthenium metal layer. By varying the oxygen flow rate during the formation of ruthenium oxide, a ruthenium metal layer having various degrees of smooth and rough textures can be formed.
Abstract:
Capacitors having increased capacitance include an enhanced-surface-area (rough-surfaced) electrically conductive layer or other layers that are compatible with the high-dielectric constant materials. In one approach, an enhanced-surface-area electrically conductive layer for such capacitors is formed by processing a ruthenium oxide layer at high temperature at or above 500° C. and low pressure 75 torr or below, most desirably 5 torr or below, to produce a roughened ruthenium layer having a textured surface with a mean feature size of at least about 100 Angstroms. The initial ruthenium oxide layer may be provided by chemical vapor deposition techniques or sputtering techniques or the like. The layer may be formed over an underlying electrically conductive layer. The processing may be performed in an inert ambient or in a reducing ambient. A nitrogen-supplying ambient or nitrogen-supplying reducing ambient may be used during the processing or afterwards to passivate the ruthenium for improved compatibility with high-dielectric-constant dielectric materials. Processing in an oxidizing ambient may also be performed to passivate the roughened layer. The roughened layer of ruthenium may be used to form an enhanced-surface-area electrically conductive layer. The resulting enhanced-surface-area electrically conductive layer may form a plate of a storage capacitor in an integrated circuit, such as in a memory cell of a DRAM or the like. In another approach, a tungsten nitride layer is provided as an first electrode of such a capacitor. The capacitor, or at least the tungsten nitride layer, is annealed to increase the capacitance of the capacitor.
