    摘要： A method of forming an interconnect, comprising the following steps. A semiconductor structure is provided that has an exposed first metal contact and a dielectric layer formed thereover. An FSG layer having a predetermined thickness is then formed over the dielectric layer. A trench, having a predetermined width, is formed within the FSG layer and the dielectric layer exposing the first metal contact. A barrier layer, having a predetermined thickness, may be formed over the FSG layer and lining the trench side walls and bottom. A metal, preferably copper, is then deposited on the barrier layer to form a copper layer, having a predetermined thickness, over said barrier layer covered FSG layer, filling the lined trench and blanket filling the barrier layer covered FSG layer. The copper layer, and the barrier layer on said upper surface of said FSG layer, are planarized, exposing the upper surface of the FSG layer and forming a planarized copper filled trench. The FSG layer and planarized copper filled trench are then processed by either: (1) annealing from about 400 to 450.degree. C. for about one hour, then either NH.sub.3 or H.sub.2 plasma treating; or (2) Ar.sup.+ sputtering to ion implant Ar.sup.+ to a depth of less than about 300 .ANG. in the fluorinated silica glass layer, whereby any formed Si--OH bonds and copper oxide (metal oxide) are removed. A dielectric cap layer, having a predetermined thickness, is then formed over the processed FSG layer and the planarized copper filled trench.

    摘要： The present invention relates to a new structure and method for the passivation of copper electrical interconnects for the semiconductor industry. More particularly, the invention details a convenient method for completing the passivation of copper lines after they have been patterned by a dry etch process. The method includes the formation of a sandwich structure consisting of a bottom barrier layer, a copper layer and a top barrier layer. After the sandwich structure is patterned with a dry etch, for example, the resultant exposed copper sidewalls are then passivated by means of a barrier metal spacer process. The fully encapsulated copper lines are highly resistant to oxidation, which is an, otherwise, inherent problem associated with the lack of self passivation/exhibited by bare copper films.

    摘要： A method for forming within a substrate employed within a microelectronics fabrication a damascene multi-layer conductor interconnection layer with inhibited/attenuated damage to a conductor stud layer accessed therein within a trench, when forming the trench interconnection pattern within a dielectric layer overlying the conductor stud layer. There is provided a substrate having a contact region formed therein employing a first intermediate metal dielectric (IMD) layer having a pattern of via contact holes etched through the IMD layer filled with studs of conductor material. There is then planarized the surface of the IMD contact region. There is then formed over the planarized first IMD layer contact region a blanket composite etch stop layer. There is the formed over the blanket composite etch stop layer a second blanket inter-level metal dielectric (IMD) layer. A patterned photoresist etch mask layer formed into the interconnection trench pattern is then formed over the substrate and employed to transfer the trench pattern into the second IMD layer and the upper sub-layer of the composite etch stop layer. The interconnection trench pattern is then transferred by a second subtractive etch into the lower sub-layer of the composite etch stop layer, employing the second IMD layer as an etch mask. A barrier metal layer is then formed over the substrate. The trench pattern is then filled with a second conductor material to complete the damascene multi-layer conductor interconnection layer, with improved electrical conductivity and contact properties and inhibited/attenuated degradation effects due to processing on the damascene interconnection layer.
