    摘要: A method to deposit TaN by plasma enhanced layer with various nitrogen content. Using a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen plasma, the nitrogen content in the film can be controlled from 0 to N/Ta=1.7. By turning off the nitrogen flow during deposition of TaN, a TaN/Ta bilayer is easily grown, which has copper diffusion barrier properties superior to those of a single Ta layer or a single TaN layer.

    摘要: Methods of depositing a tantalum-nitride (TaN) diffusion barrier region on low-k materials. The methods include forming a protective layer on the low-k material substrate by performing plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD) from tantalum-based precursor and a nitrogen plasma in a chamber. The protective layer has a nitrogen content greater than its tantalum content. A substantially stoichiometric tantalum-nitride layer is then formed by performing PE-ALD from the tantalum-based precursor and a plasma including hydrogen and nitrogen. The invention also includes the tantalum-nitride diffusion barrier region so formed. In one embodiment, the metal precursor includes tantalum penta-chloride (TaCl5). The invention generates a sharp interface between low-k materials and liner materials.

    摘要: Nanofluidic passages such as nanochannels and nanopores are closed or opened in a controlled manner through the use of a feedback system. An oxide layer is grown or removed within a passage in the presence of an electrolyte until the passage reaches selected dimensions or is closed. The change in dimensions of the nanofluidic passage is measured during fabrication. The ionic current level through the passage can be used to determine passage dimensions. Fluid flow through an array of fluidic elements can be controlled by selective oxidation of fluidic passages between elements.
