    摘要: A metal layer is formed on an integrated circuit device including forming an insulating layer on an integrated circuit substrate. A contact hole is formed by selectively etching the insulating layer to thereby partially expose the substrate. A metal layer including tantalum nitride is formed on the insulating layer including the contact hole using a tantalum precursor including a tantalum element and at least one bonding element that is chemically bonded to the tantalum element. A part of the at least one bonding element include at least one ligand bonding element that is ligand-bonded to the tantalum element. Forming the metal layer may include removing at least some of the ligand bonded elements with a removing gas that is substantially free of hydrogen radicals. The metal layer may be formed using a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or an atomic layer deposition (ALD) process. A copper or other metal layer may be deposited on the metal layer including tantalum nitride.

    摘要: A structure includes a diffusion barrier layer pattern, a conductive layer pattern, an adhesion layer pattern, and a tantalum nitride layer pattern that are sequentially stacked over a semiconductor substrate. According to the method of forming the structure, a tantalum nitride layer is formed by using a PVD, CVD, or ALD process and patterned to form a tantalum nitride layer pattern. The structure and the method prevents process failures such as ring defects, simplifies associated processes, and allows relatively easy exposure of only an anti-refractive layer when forming a via hole in the structure.

    摘要: A method for forming a dual gate includes providing a semiconductor substrate that has a first region of a first conductivity type and a second region of a second conductivity type. A gate insulating layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate. An initial metal nitride layer is formed on the gate insulating layer, opposite to the semiconductor substrate. Nitrogen ions are implanted into the initial metal nitride layer in the second transistor region to form a nitrogen-rich metal nitride layer. The initial metal nitride layer is patterned to form a first gate electrode in the first region. The nitrogen-rich metal nitride layer is patterned to form a second gate electrode in the second region. The work function of the nitrogen-rich metal nitride layer is higher than that of the initial metal nitride layer.
