An MIM capacitor includes a first capacitor electrode, which is formed in the surface of a first intermediate dielectric, a second intermediate dielectric, which is formed on the first intermediate dielectric and has an opening that exposes the first capacitor electrode, and a first electrically conducting diffusion barrier layer, which is formed on the surface of the exposed first capacitor electrode. On the diffusion barrier layer and on the side walls of the opening there is also formed a capacitor dielectric and a second capacitor electrode on top.
摘要:
A method of forming an ultrathin homogenous metal layer that serves as base metallization for formation of contact locations and/or contact pads and/or wirings of an integrated electronic component. The method includes the steps of depositing a first metal layer on a substrate at least in regions, and producing a second metal layer on the first metal layer at least in regions, component(s) of the second metal layer have a more positive redox potential than component(s) of the first metal layer, wherein ultrathin homogenous deposition of the second metal layer is effected by wet-chemical, current-free, electrochemical redox processes by element exchange from one or more metal salts as oxidant with at least a top metal atomic layer of the first metal layer as reductant.

An interconnect arrangement and fabrication method are described. The interconnect arrangement includes an electrically conductive mount substrate, a dielectric layer formed on the mount substrate, and an electrically conductive interconnect formed on the dielectric layer. At least a portion of the dielectric layer under the interconnect contains a cavity. To fabricate the interconnect arrangement, a sacrificial layer is formed on the mount substrate and the interconnect layer is formed on the sacrificial layer. The interconnect layer and the sacrificial layer are structured to produce a structured interconnect on the structured sacrificial layer. A porous dielectric layer is formed on a surface of the mount substrate and of the structured interconnect as well as the sacrificial layer. The sacrificial layer is then removed to form the cavity under the interconnect.

In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a trench from a top surface of a substrate having a device region. The device region is adjacent to the top surface than an opposite bottom surface. The trench surrounds the sidewalls of the device region. The trench is filled with an adhesive. An adhesive layer is formed over the top surface of the substrate. A carrier is attached with the adhesive layer. The substrate is thinned from the bottom surface to expose at least a portion of the adhesive and a back surface of the device region. The adhesive layer is removed and adhesive is etched to expose a sidewall of the device region.
