    摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide processes to selectively form a cobalt layer on a copper surface over exposed dielectric surfaces. In one embodiment, a method for capping a copper surface on a substrate is provided which includes positioning a substrate within a processing chamber, wherein the substrate contains a contaminated copper surface and a dielectric surface, exposing the contaminated copper surface to a reducing agent while forming a copper surface during a pre-treatment process, exposing the substrate to a cobalt precursor gas to selectively form a cobalt capping layer over the copper surface while leaving exposed the dielectric surface during a vapor deposition process, and depositing a dielectric barrier layer over the cobalt capping layer and the dielectric surface. In another embodiment, a deposition-treatment cycle includes performing the vapor deposition process and subsequently a post-treatment process, which deposition-treatment cycle may be repeated to form multiple cobalt capping layers.

    摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide methods for processing substrates within a substrate processing system. In one embodiment, the method provides depositing a material on a substrate within a vapor deposition chamber coupled to a buffer chamber contained within a mainframe while maintaining a pressure of about 1×10−6 Torr or lower within a transfer chamber contained within the mainframe. The method further includes transferring the substrate from the vapor deposition chamber to the buffer chamber by a substrate handling robot while flowing a gas into the buffer chamber, evacuating the vapor deposition chamber, and maintaining a greater internal pressure within the buffer chamber than in the vapor deposition chamber. In some embodiments, the method includes transferring the substrate from the transfer chamber to a PVD chamber coupled to the transfer chamber by another substrate handling robot and depositing another material on the substrate within the PVD chamber.
