Abstract:
A method for preventing tungsten contact/via plug loss after a backside pressure fault defect in a deposition chamber is provided. In the method, first deposited by a silane soak step and a tungsten nucleation layer is subsequently deposited, a plasma treating step by a H2 plasma is carried out at a temperature of not higher than 480° C. for a time period of at least 15 seconds. The plasma treating step significantly improves the uniform distribution of the silicon prenucleation layer and substantially prevents the formation of any tungsten silicide layers such that during an etchback process, the dry etchant utilized does not remove a tungsten silicide layer at a much faster rate and leads to a plug loss defect.
Abstract:
A method for preventing tungsten contact plug loss problem after a backside pressure fault problem in a deposition chamber is provided. In the method, first deposited by a silane soak step and a tungsten nucleation layer is subsequently deposited, a heat treating step by a rapid thermal process is carried out at a temperature of at least 600° C. for a time period of at least 10 seconds. The heat treating step significantly improves the uniform distribution of the silicon prenucleation layer and substantially prevents the formation of any tungsten silicide layers such that during an etchback process, the dry etchant utilized does not remove a tungsten silicide layer at a much faster rate and thereby does not result in a plug loss problem.
Abstract:
A portable electrical device including an antenna radiation body, a wireless communication module and a cable is provided. The antenna radiation body transceives a first radio frequency (RF) signal belonging to a first frequency band. The wireless communication module processes the first RF signal. The cable connects the antenna radiation body with the wireless communication module to transmit the first RF signal. The cable has multiple grounding points. The distances between the neighboring grounding points are less than a quarter wavelength of a signal corresponding to the first frequency band.
Abstract:
A method for forming a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure with improved electrical isolation performance including providing a semiconductor substrate including an overlying silicon oxide layer on the semiconductor substrate and a hardmask layer on the silicon oxide layer; dry etching in a first etching process to form a patterned hardmask opening for etching an STI opening; dry etching in a second etching process the semiconductor substrate to form an upper portion of an STI opening to form a polymer layer along sidewall portions of the STI opening; and, dry etching in a third etching process the STI opening to form rounded bottom corners and rounded top corners.
Abstract:
The disposable cup includes a cup body and a straw. The cup body has a tube and a bottom connected to an end of the tube. The straw is directly connected to the tube at an outside position adjacent to the bottom, and communicating with the tube.
