摘要: The reliability and performance of planarized metallization patterns in an electrical device, for example copper, inlaid in the surface of a layer of dielectric material overlying a semiconductor wafer substrate, are enhanced by a method for reliably depositing a barrier layer selective to the metallization patterns. The method comprises forming a sacrificial dielectric layer above a substrate. Metallization patterns are formed in the sacrificial dielectric layer. The barrier layer is selectively deposited on the metallization patterns. Portions of the barrier material undesirably deposited on the sacrificial dielectric layer are removed by removing the sacrificial dielectric layer, thus preventing bridging of adjacent metallization features by the barrier layer portions. An interlevel dielectric layer is then formed in place of the sacrificial dielectric layer. The selectively deposited barrier layer advantageously reduces parasitic capacitance between metallization features in comparison to a conventional blanket-deposited silicon nitride barrier layer.

摘要: A Cu interconnect, e.g.; a dual damascene structure, is formed with improved electromigration resistance and increased via chain yield by depositing a barrier layer in an opening by CVD, depositing a flash layer of &agr;-Ta by PVD, at a thickness less than 30 Å, on the bottom of the barrier layer, depositing a seedlayer and then filling the opening with Cu. Embodiments include depositing a thin &agr;-Ta layer, as at a thickness less than 10 Å, and/or as discontinuous regions of clusters of atoms on sides of the opening.

摘要: Improved etch selectivity, barrier metal wetting and reduced interconnect capacitance are achieved by implementing damascene processing employing a graded middle etch stop layer comprising a first silicon carbide layer, a silicon-rich layer on the first silicon carbide, and a second silicon carbide layer on the silicon-rich layer. Embodiments include sequentially depositing a porous low-k dielectric layer over a lower capped Cu line, depositing the graded middle-etch stop layer, depositing a porous low-k dielectric layer on the graded middle-etch stop layer, forming a dual damascene opening exposing the silicon-rich surface at the bottom of the trench opening, depositing a seed layer, depositing a barrier middle layer, such as Ta or a Ta/TaN composite, and filling the opening with Cu.
