    摘要: An aluminum interconnection film has a three layered structure of an aluminum alloy film, a tungsten film, and a titanium nitride film. An aluminum interconnection film and a second aluminum interconnection film are electrically connected through a through hole formed in a silicon oxide film. Because light reflectivity of the titanium nitride film is low, the exposed area of the resist can be kept within a predetermined area even if photolithography is carried out above a step where light is irregularly reflected. Therefore, it is possible to form a through hole of a desired dimension even if the through hole is formed above the step. Even if the titanium nitride film is etched and removed in forming the through hole, the aluminum alloy film is not exposed since the etching speed of the silicon oxide film is considerably slower than that of the tungsten film. The problem of denatured layer formation and residue formation caused by exposure of aluminum alloy film does not occur.

    摘要: An aluminum interconnection film has a three layered structure of an aluminum alloy film, a tungsten film, and a titanium nitride film. An aluminum interconnection film and an aluminum interconnection film are electrically connected through a through hole formed in a silicon oxide film, one embodiment using a tungsten plug for the electrical connection. Because light reflectivity of the titanium nitride film is low, the exposed area of the resist can be kept within a predetermined area even if photolithography is carried out above a step where light is irregularly reflected. Therefore, it is possible to form a through hole of a desired dimension even if the through hole is formed above the step. Even if the titanium nitride film is etched and removed in forming the through hole, the aluminum alloy film is not exposed since the etching speed of the silicon oxide film is considerably slower than that of the tungsten film.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor integrated circuit device having a multilayer wiring structure. A semiconductor substrate on which a scribe line portion is to be formed is prepared to form an interlayer insulating film on the semiconductor substrate. Then, the interlayer insulating film at the scribe line portion is etched away so as to expose the scribe line portion on the semiconductor substrate. At this time, a step portion of the interlayer insulating film is formed at the scribe line portion. Then, a metal wiring film is formed on the whole surface of the semiconductor substrate comprising the step portion of this interlayer insulating film and etched away such that the residue of the metal wiring film may be left so as to cover this step portion along the step portion of the interlayer insulating film. By leaving the residue of the metal wiring film thickly and long along the step portion of the interlayer insulating film in this manner, the adhesion between the residue of the metal wiring film and the semiconductor substrate becomes strong and the residue of this metal wiring film is prevented from coming off in the manufacturing steps of a semiconductor integrated circuit device and from contaminating a wafer surface or manufacturing facilities.

    摘要: A fourth and a fifth interlayer insulating film are formed and a connecting hole which passes through these films is formed. The connecting hole is filled with a metallic plug. The exposed surface of the fifth interlayer insulating film and metallic plug is etched back by dry etching in an atmosphere containing CF4 gas. Thus, the step difference between the surfaces of the metallic plug and fifth interlayer insulating film is reduced. The shape of the connecting hole is shaped so that its opening has a larger diameter at its upper position. The surfaces of the fifth interlayer insulating film and metallic plug are exposed to plasma atmosphere containing oxygen, irradiated with the light having a wavelength of several 10 nm to 400 nm or subjected to the sputter etching using an Ar gas.

    摘要: A first aluminum interconnection layer includes an aluminum alloy layer 12 and an upper metal layer 13 containing refractory metal. A second aluminum layer 15 is in contact with a surface of upper metal layer 13 through a through-hole 19. A thickness t2 of a contact portion 132 of upper metal layer 13 is smaller than a thickness t1 of a non-contact portion 131. In an interconnection structure for a semiconductor integrated circuit device, the increase in electric resistance by the through-hole is suppressed, and also effects achieved by layer 13 containing refractory metal forming the most upper portion of first aluminum interconnection layer 1A are maintained.
