    摘要: Structures and methods for preventing fluorine diffusion from a fluorinated dielectric material having a low dielectric constant are disclosed. Various fluorine diffusion barriers are described, each of which comprises doped or undoped silicon in combination with tantalum, tantalum nitride, tantalum silicide, cobalt, cobalt silicide, or mixtures thereof. Fluorine diffusion from fluorinated dielectrics is stopped by the barriers at temperatures as high as 450° C. In practice, one of the disclosed fluorine diffusion barriers is positioned between a fluorine-containing insulator and a conductive metal interconnect or metal interconnect diffusion barrier, thereby preventing diffusion of the fluorine atoms into the adjacent interconnect/barrier.

    摘要: Cobalt thin films were prepared by atomic layer deposition (ALD). The precursor cobalt(II) acetylacetonate [Co(C5H7O2)2] was used to selectively deposit films onto iridium substrates using hydrogen reduction. Cobalt growth was observed on SiO2, silicon, fluorinated silica glass (FSG), and tantalum when silane was used as a reducing agent.

    摘要: A method of depositing a polymer film onto a semiconductor wafer is provided which includes the steps of connecting the wafer to one terminal of a voltage source, connecting an electrode to an other pole of the voltage source and placing the electrode and substrate in superposed orientation to form a parallel plate capacitor, wherein an electric field is produced between the electrode and substrate. The parallel plate capacitor is placed in a chamber where pressure andc temperature are maintained at predetermined levels and gaseous monomers of the desired film to be polymerized are introduced into the chamber. The gaseous monomers are then permitted to flow between the electrode and wafer while the voltage of the electric field is maintained at a level sufficient to polarize the monomers without breaking their chemical bonds wherein the polarized monomers react to form a polymer film on the wafer at an enhanced rate.

    摘要: Semiconductor devices employing siloxane epoxy polymers as low-κ dielectric films are disclosed. The devices include a semiconductor substrate, one or more metal layers or structures and one or more dielectric films, wherein at least one dielectric film in the devices is a siloxane epoxy polymer. Use of siloxane epoxy polymers is advantageous, in part, because the polymers adhere well to metals and have dielectric constants as low as 1.8. Thus, the disclosed semiconductor devices offer much better performance than devices fabricated using conventional dielectric materials. Furthermore, the siloxane epoxy polymer dielectrics are fully curable at low temperatures, exhibit low leakage currents, and remain stable at temperatures greater than 400° C. making them particularly attractive for use in the semiconductor industry
