    摘要: Embodiments of methods for forming interconnect patterns on a substrate are provided herein. In some embodiments, a method for forming an interconnect pattern atop a substrate includes depositing a porous dielectric layer atop a cap layer and a plurality of spacers disposed atop the cap layer, wherein the cap layer is disposed atop a bulk dielectric layer and the bulk dielectric layer is disposed atop a substrate; removing a portion of the porous dielectric layer; removing the plurality of spacers to form features in the porous dielectric layer; and etching the cap layer to extend the features through the cap layer.

    摘要: Processing methods may be performed to produce three-dimensional interconnects on a substrate. The methods may include forming a first metal interconnect layer over a semiconductor substrate. The methods may include forming a first dielectric layer over the first metal interconnect layer. The methods may include forming a second metal interconnect layer over the first dielectric layer. The methods may include forming a patterning mask overlying the second metal interconnect layer. The methods may also include simultaneously etching each of the first metal interconnect layer, the first dielectric layer, and the second metal interconnect layer to expose the substrate to produce a multilayer interconnect structure in a first lateral direction.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for forming an interconnect structure, including: depositing a plurality of spacers atop a low-k dielectric layer including a plurality of recessed vias, wherein one or more of the plurality of spacers is deposited atop the top surface of the low-k dielectric layer and within one or more of the plurality of recessed vias to form a one or more partially filled recessed vias; depositing a conformal metal layer atop the low-k dielectric layer, plurality of spacers, and within the one or more partially filled recessed vias to form a plurality of filled vias; etching the conformal metal layer to remove portions thereof to form a second plurality of partially filled recessed vias; and filling between the plurality spacers and within the second plurality of partially filled recessed vias with a dielectric material to form a second plurality of filled vias.

    摘要: Exemplary etching methods may include flowing a hydrogen-containing precursor into a semiconductor processing chamber. The methods may include flowing a fluorine-containing precursor into a remote plasma region of the semiconductor processing chamber. The methods may include forming a plasma of the fluorine-containing precursor in the remote plasma region. The methods may include etching a pre-determined amount of a silicon-containing material from a substrate in a processing region of the semiconductor processing chamber. The methods may include measuring a radical density within the remote plasma region during the etching. The methods may also include halting the flow of the hydrogen-containing precursor into the semiconductor processing chamber when the radical density measured over time correlates to a produced amount of etchant to remove the pre-determined amount of the silicon-containing material.
