    摘要: A system and method for providing a passivation structure for semiconductor devices is provided. In an embodiment, the passivation structure comprises a first barrier layer and a second barrier layer, wherein the second barrier layer may comprise a material, such as cobalt and/or nickel, that is less pure than the first barrier layer. In another embodiment, a single gradient barrier layer is formed. In this embodiment the single gradient barrier layer exhibits a greater pure conductive material, such as cobalt and/or nickel, nearer the conductive line than near the surface.

    摘要: A semiconductor interconnection structure is manufactured as follows. First, a substrate with a first dielectric layer and a second dielectric layer is formed. Subsequently, an opening is formed in the second dielectric layer. A thin metal layer and a seed layer are formed in sequence on the surface of the second dielectric layer in the opening, wherein the metal layer comprises at least one metal species having phase segregation property of a second conductor. The wafer of the substrate is subjected to a thermal treatment, by which most of the metal species in the metal layer at a bottom of the opening is diffused to a top surface of the second conductor to form a metal-based oxide layer. Afterwards, the wafer is subjected to planarization, so as to remove the second conductor outside the opening.

    摘要: A method of forming an integrated circuit interconnect structure is presented. A first conductive line is formed over a semiconductor substrate. A conductive cap layer is formed on the first conductive line to improve device reliability. An etch stop layer (ESL) is formed on the conductive cap layer. An inter-level dielectric (IMD) is formed on the ESL. A via opening and a trench are formed in the ESL, IMD, and conductive cap layer. A recess is formed in the first conductive line. The recess can be formed by over etching when the first dielectric is etched, or by a separate process such as argon sputtering. A second conductive line is formed filling the trench, opening and recess.

    摘要: A semiconductor device and fabrication method thereof. The semiconductor device comprises a substrate, an electroactive organic layer with conformal step coverage and uniform thickness, and a metal layer. The substrate is a conductive substrate or a nonconductive substrate with a conductive layer formed thereon. The electroactive organic layer and the metal layer are formed sequentially on the conductive substrate or the conductive layer, wherein the electroactive organic layer comprises metal atoms and serves as a seed layer, resulting in the metal layer formed in-situ.
