    摘要: By providing a photoresist material with a protective polymer layer during the etching of an organic anti-reflective coating, undue damage to the photoresist material can be avoided during opening of the anti-reflective coating without the need for an oxidant. The preferred polymer chemistry system for producing such a result includes a fluorohydrocarbon-containing polymer mixture with a strong source of CF3, preferably C2F6. The etchant also includes a source of hydrogen selected from CH3F, C2HF5, or CH2F2, and a diluent selected from Ar, He or N2.

    摘要: An integrated circuit and method of making the integrated circuit. Air gaps are formed between surfaces of current-conducting lines that face one another and dielectric material disposed between these surfaces of the current-conducting lines. A liner material is applied to these surfaces of the current-conducting lines and, after the dielectric material is introduced between the current-conducting lines, the liner material is removed, for example by etching, leaving air gaps between the current-conducting lines and the dielectric material. These air gaps eliminate or greatly reduce the effect of capacitive currents across the dielectric material between the current-conducting lines.

    摘要: The etch depth during trench over via etch of a dual damascene structure in a dielectric film stack is controlled to be the same over the dense area and the open area of a substrate and solve micro-loading problems. The trench etch process is adapted to include a forward micro-loading etching process and a reverse micro-loading etching process using two etch chemistries together with the inclusion of a dopant material layer or an organic fill material layer during the deposition of the dielectric film stack. In one embodiment, etching of trenches over vias is switched from forward micro-loading to reverse micro-loading once etching of the dielectric film stack is reached at a predetermined location of a dopant material layer. In another embodiment, etching of an organic trench filling material layer is performed in a reverse micro-loading process followed by etching the dielectric film stack in a forward micro-loading process.

    摘要: Methods are provided for depositing a dielectric material for use as an anti-reflective coating and sacrificial dielectric material in damascene formation. In one aspect, a process is provided for processing a substrate including depositing an acidic dielectric layer on the substrate by reacting an oxygen-containing organosilicon compound and an acidic compound, depositing a photoresist material on the acidic dielectric layer, and patterning the photoresist layer. The acidic dielectric layer may be used as a sacrificial layer in forming a feature definition by etching a partial feature definition, depositing the acidic dielectric material, etching the remainder of the feature definition, and then removing the acidic dielectric material to form a feature definition.

    摘要: A method of forming a semiconductor structure may include forming a semiconductor substrate having an array region and a support region, forming a semiconductor substrate and a gate stack over the support region of the substrate and applying a critical mask over the support region and the array region. The critical mask may have a first opening at an area corresponding to the array region and a second opening at an area corresponding to the support region. Contact holes may be formed in a glass layer at areas corresponding to the first and second opening. After removing the critical mask, a first blockout mask may be applied over the array region and a first conductive type dopant may be added to exposed polysilicon corresponding to openings of the blockout mask or gate contacts may be formed.
