摘要:
A method for increasing deposition rates of metal layers from metal-carbonyl precursors by mixing a vapor of the metal-carbonyl precursor with CO gas. The method includes providing a substrate in a process chamber of a deposition system, forming a process gas containing a metal-carbonyl precursor vapor and a CO gas, and exposing the substrate to the process gas to deposit a metal layer on the substrate by a thermal chemical vapor deposition process.

In a solid precursor evaporation system configured for use in a thin film deposition system, such as thermal chemical vapor deposition (TCVD), a method for preparing one or more trays of solid precursor is described. The solid precursor may be formed on a coating substrate, such as a tray, using one or more of dipping techniques, spin-on techniques, and sintering techniques.
摘要:
A method for depositing metal layers, such as Ruthenium, on semiconductor substrates by a thermal chemical vapor deposition (TCVD) process includes introducing a metal carbonyl precursor in a deposition system, and depositing a metal layer from the metal carbonyl on a substrate. The TCVD process utilizes a short residence time for the gaseous species in the processing zone above the substrate to form a low-resistivity metal layer. In the deposition system, the metal carbonyl is evaporated in a solid precursor evaporation system, and the precursor vapor is transported to the process chamber via a vapor delivery system. Further, an in-situ cleaning system is coupled to the vapor delivery system in order to perform periodic cleaning of the deposition system. Periodic in-situ cleaning permits achieving a greater deposition rate by operating the deposition system at higher temperature where precursor vapor can decompose and potentially deposit on surfaces of the deposition system.

A method for depositing Ru and Re metal layers on substrates with high deposition rates, low particulate contamination, and good step coverage on patterned substrates is presented. The method includes providing a substrate in a process chamber, introducing a process gas in the process chamber in which the process gas comprises a carrier gas and a metal precursor selected from the group consisting of a ruthenium-carbonyl precursor and a rhenium-carbonyl precursor. The method further includes depositing a Ru or Re metal layer on the substrate by a thermal chemical vapor deposition process at a process chamber pressure less than about 20 mTorr.
摘要:
A conductive material is electroplated onto a platable resistive metal barrier layer(s) employing a plating bath optionally comprising a super filling additive and a suppressor, and by changing the current or voltage as a function of the area of plated metal. A structure is also provided that comprises a substrate, a platable metal barrier layer(s) located on the substrate and a relatively continuous uniform electroplated layer of a conductive material located on the platable resistive metal barrier layer.
摘要:
A solid state device includes a first material and a second material. A barrier layer is formed between the first material and the second material to prevent diffusion between the first material and the second material. The barrier layer includes a metal form of at least one of Ru and Re. The barrier layer is preferably formed using a low temperature deposition process, where the substrate is less than 400 degrees C.

A method for processing a substrate on a ceramic substrate heater in a process chamber. The method includes forming a protective coating on the ceramic substrate heater in the process chamber and processing a substrate on the coated substrate heater. The processing can include providing a substrate to be processed on the coated ceramic substrate heater, performing a process on the substrate by exposing the substrate to a process gas, and removing the processed substrate from the process chamber.

A method and a processing tool are provided for forming a metal layer with improved morphology on a substrate. The method includes pre-treating the substrate by exposing the substrate to excited species in a plasma, exposing the pre-treated substrate to a process gas containing a metal-carbonyl precursor, and forming a metal layer on the pre-treated substrate surface by a chemical vapor deposition process. The metal-carbonyl precursor can contain W(CO)6, Ni(CO)4, Mo(CO)6, CO2(CO)8, Rh4(CO)12, Re2(CO)10, Cr(CO)6, or Ru3(CO)12 or any combination thereof, and the metal layer can contain W, Ni, Mo, Co, Rh, Re, Cr, or Ru, or any combination thereof, respectively.
摘要:
A deposition member adapted for discharging a deposition material during a deposition process can acquire a coating during the deposition. Such an initial emissivity value is selected for the deposition member, before any of the coating became deposited, that the emissivity of the deposition member remains substantially unchanged during the deposition process. In a representative embodiment the deposition member is coated with an appropriate thin layer for achieving the selected emissivity value.
