    摘要: A deposition method for improving the step coverage of contact holes is disclosed. The method includes initially placing a semiconductor substrate on a chuck of a chamber, wherein the substrate has some contact holes. The chuck is firstly adjusted and conductive material is firstly deposited onto the substrate, wherein the direction of the first deposition is about vertical to the surface of the substrate, and therefore the bottom of the contact holes is then substantially deposited with the conductive material. Next, the chuck is secondly adjusted so that it has a tilt angle between the direction of the second deposition and rotation axis of the chuck. Finally, the chuck is continuously rotated and the conductive material is secondly deposited onto the substrate, and therefore the sidewall of the contact holes is then substantially deposited with the conductive material.

    摘要: A method of fabricating a copper capping layer. A silicon rich nitride layer is formed on an exposed copper layer. Since the silicon rich nitride layer has more dangling bonds inside, the silicon in the silicon rich nitride layer easily reacts with the copper and a copper silicide layer is formed between the copper and the silicon rich nitride layer. Therefore, adhesion of the copper and the silicon rich nitride layer can be improved.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing a via structure comprising the steps of providing a semiconductor substrate, and then forming conductive line and dielectric layer over the substrate. Next, a photolithographic and a first etching operation are conducted so that an opening in the dielectric layer exposing the conductive line surface is formed. The first etching operation uses several etchants including fluorobutane, which has the highest concentration. Since there is a re-entrance structure at the bottom of the opening, a second etching operation is performed. In the second etching operation, a portion of the conductive line is etched for a fixed time interval to control the degree of etching. Consequently, a slanting surface is formed at the bottom of the opening and the re-entrance structure is eliminated. With a planarized bottom, step coverage of subsequently deposited material is increased.

At least one of the conductive metallic layers connects electrically with a portion of the device in the substrate by a signal conduction line. The mechanical support structure is constructed using a plurality of serially connected supportive metallic layers each at a different height between the bonding pad layer and the substrate.
