摘要:
A method for increasing the trench capacitor surface area is provided. The method, which utilizes a metal silicide to roughen the trench walls, increases capacitance due to the increase in the trench surface area after the silicide has been removed. The roughening of the trench walls can be controlled by varying one or more of the following parameters: the density of the metal, the metal film thickness, the silicide phase, and the choice of the metal. Once the metal is deposited in the trench, the method is self-limited. Shrinking the trench to its original width can be obtained by subsequent silicon deposition or by diffusion of silicon from a cap layer through the silicide.

A method for fabricating a CMOS gate electrode by using Re, Rh, Pt, Ir or Ru metal and a CMOS structure that contains such gate electrodes are described. The work functions of these metals make them compatible with current pFET requirements. For instance, the metal can withstand the high hydrogen pressures necessary to produce properly passivated interfaces without undergoing chemical changes. The thermal stability of the metal on dielectric layers such as SiO2, Al2O3 and other suitable dielectric materials makes it compatible with post-processing temperatures up to 1000° C. A low temperature/low pressure CVD technique with Re2(CO)10 as the source material is used when Re is to be deposited.

摘要:
A method of fabricating hafnium oxide and/or zirconium oxide films is provided. The methods include providing a mixture of Hf and/or Zr alkoxide dissolved, emulsified or suspended in a liquid; vaporizing at least the alkoxide and depositing the vaporized component at a temperature of greater than 400° C. The resultant film is dense, microcrystalline and is capable of self-passivation when treated in a hydrogen plasma or forming gas anneal.

A method of treating structures (and the structure formed thereby), so as to prevent or retard the oxidation of a metal film, and/or prevent its delamination a substrate, includes providing a structure including a refractory metal film formed on a substrate, placing the structure into a vessel having a base pressure below approximately 10−7 torr, exposing the structure to a silane gas at a sufficiently high predetermined temperature and predetermined pressure to cause formation of a metal silicide layer on the refractory metal film, and exposing the structure to a second gas at a sufficiently high temperature and pressure to nitride the metal silicide layer into a nitrided layer.

摘要:
An interconnect structure that includes a dielectric material having a dielectric constant of about 3.0 or less is provided. This low k dielectric material has at least one conductive material having an upper surface embedded therein. The dielectric material also has a surface layer that is made hydrophobic prior to the formation of the noble metal cap. The noble metal cap is located directly on the upper surface of the at least one conductive material. Because of the presence of the hydrophobic surface layer on the dielectric material, the noble metal cap does not substantially extend onto the hydrophobic surface layer of the dielectric material that is adjacent to the at least one conductive material and no metal residues from the noble metal cap deposition form on this hydrophobic dielectric surface.
