    摘要: With the reduction in the size of semiconductor integrated circuit devices, there have been increases in the resistance at the contact portions of metal interconnections and in the incidence of contact failure. To solve these problems, the present invention provides a novel interconnection structure. Namely, a metal interconnection which has a barrier metal layer formed thereunder and which is also used to form electrode lead-out portions for external connection is arranged such that, among the following portions, that is, electrode portions of a plurality of elements fabricated on a semiconductor substrate in the form of an integrated circuit, interconnection portions between these elements, and the above-described electrode lead-out portions for external connection, those portions of the interconnection layer which are defined as the electrode portions of the elements and the interconnection portions are isolated from the semiconductor substrate by means of a barrier metal layer, while those portions of the interconnection layer which are defined as the electrode lead-out portions for external connection are formed not through the barrier metal layer but directly on the interlayer insulating layer.

    摘要: A thin film forming method and apparatus, wherein a negative voltage is applied alternately to a target and a substrate to perform film formation and reverse sputter alternately. Further, a coil is mounted between the target and the substrate and a high frequency current is made to flow therethrough to generate plasma. A negative base voltage smaller in absolute value than that during sputter may be applied to the substrate to make Ar ions flow into the substrate while it is subjected to reverse sputter. Thus, a film whose step coverage is 0.3 or more is possible. It becomes also possible to maintain a stable discharge and perform reverse sputter in a high vacuum region. The pressure of an Ar atmosphere may be lowered to 10.sup.-3 Torr or less. An aluminum wiring film whose peak value of x-ray diffraction strength at a (111) plane is 150 Kcps or more is possible. Also, a barrier layer having a layered structure of granular and columnar crystals or a mixed structure thereof providing an efficient barrier effect and a large specific resistance is possible.
