摘要:
A method to electrolessly plate a CoWP alloy on copper in a reproducible manner that is effective for a manufacturable process. In the method, a seed layer of palladium (Pd) is deposited on the copper by an aqueous seeding solution of palladium acetate, acetic acid and chloride. Thereafter, a complexing solution is applied to remove any Pd ions which are adsorbed on surfaces other than the copper. Finally, a plating solution of cobalt (Co), tungsten (W) and phosphorous (P) is applied to the copper so as to deposit a layer of CoWP on the Pd seed and copper.
摘要:
A structure incorporates very low dielectric constant (k) insulators with copper wiring to achieve high performance interconnects. The wiring is supported by a relatively durable low k dielectric such as SiLk or SiO2 and a very low k and less-robust gap fill dielectric is disposed in the remainder of the structure, so that the structure combines a durable layer for strength with a very low k dielectric for interconnect electrical performance.
摘要:
A method is described for fabricating an encapsulated metal structure in a feature formed in a substrate. The sidewalls and bottom of the feature are covered by a barrier layer and the feature is filled with metal, preferably by electroplating. A recess is formed in the metal, and an additional barrier layer is deposited, covering the top surface of the metal and contacting the first barrier layer. The additional barrier layer is planarized, preferably by chemical-mechanical polishing. The method may be used in fabricating a MIM capacitor, with the encapsulated metal structure serving as the lower plate of the capacitor. A second substrate layer is deposited on the top surface of the substrate, with an opening overlying the encapsulated metal structure. A dielectric layer is deposited in the opening, covering the encapsulated metal structure at the bottom thereof. An additional layer, serving as the upper plate of the capacitor, is deposited to cover the dielectric layer and to fill the opening. The dielectric layer and the additional layer are planarized, preferably by CMP.

摘要:
Sealing a via using a soventless, low viscosity, high temperature stable polymer or a high solids content polymer solution of low viscosity, where the polymeric material is impregnated within the via at an elevated temperature. A supply chamber is introduced to administer the polymeric material at an elevated temperature, typically at a temperature high enough to liquefy the polymeric material. The polymeric material is introduced through heated supply lines under force from a pump, piston, or a vacuum held within said supply chamber.
