    Abstract: An electroplated cobalt deposit and a method of electrodepositing cobalt on a surface to produce a level deposit across the surface of the substrate. The cobalt electrolyte contains (1) a source of cobalt ions; (2) boric acid; (3) a pH adjuster; and (4) an organic additive, which contains a suppressor. The electroplated cobalt deposit exhibits a level surface such that the thickness difference across substantially the entire surface of the substrate of less than about 200 nm.

    Abstract: Processes and compositions for electroplating a cobalt deposit onto a semiconductor base structure comprising submicron-sized electrical interconnect features. In the process, a metalizing substrate within the interconnect features is contacted with an electrodeposition composition comprising a source of cobalt ions, an accelerator comprising an organic sulfur compound, an acetylenic suppressor, a buffering agent and water. Electrical current is supplied to the electrolytic composition to deposit cobalt onto the base structure and fill the submicron-sized features with cobalt. The process is effective for superfilling the interconnect features.

    Abstract: A method of forming a diffusion barrier layer on a dielectric or semiconductor substrate by a wet process. The method includes the steps of treating the dielectric or semiconductor substrate with an aqueous pretreatment solution comprising one or more adsorption promoting ingredients capable of preparing the substrate for deposition of the diffusion barrier layer thereon; and contacting the treated dielectric or semiconductor substrate with a deposition solution comprising manganese compounds and an inorganic pH buffer (optionally, with one or more doping metals) to the diffusion barrier layer thereon, wherein the diffusion barrier layer comprises manganese oxide. Also included is a two-part kit for treating a dielectric or semiconductor substrate to form a diffusion barrier layer thereon.
