摘要:
A process is described for depositing a metal film on a substrate surface having a diffusion barrier layer deposited thereupon. In one embodiment of the present invention, the process includes: providing a surface of the diffusion barrier layer that is substantially free of an elemental metal and forming the metal film on at least a portion of the surface via deposition by using a organometallic precursor. In certain embodiments, the diffusion barrier layer may be exposed to an adhesion promoting agent prior to or during at least a portion of the forming step. Suitable adhesion promoting agents include nitrogen, nitrogen-containing compounds, carbon-containing compounds, carbon and nitrogen containing compounds, silicon-containing compounds, silicon and carbon containing compounds, silicon, carbon, and nitrogen containing compounds, or mixtures thereof. The process of the present invention provides substrates having enhanced adhesion between the diffusion barrier layer and the metal film.

摘要:
Organometallic precursor complexes containing a metal and ligands containing electron withdrawing groups are disclosed. The complexes are adapted to undergo exothermic adsorption on a fully passivated diffusion barrier layer and on a metal layer deposited on the diffusion barrier layer and to undergo exothermic reduction on the diffusion barrier layer and the metal layer. The metal is preferably copper. Use of the complexes in atomic layer deposition is also disclosed.
