摘要:
A current-leveling electrode for improving electroplating and electrochemical polishing uniformity in the electrochemical plating or electropolishing of metals on a substrate is disclosed. The current-leveling electrode includes a base electrode and at least one sub-electrode carried by the base electrode. The at least one sub-electrode has a width which is less than a width of the base electrode to impart a generally tapered, stepped or convex configuration to the current-leveling electrode.

A method for preventing the formation of voids and contaminants in vias during the fabrication of a metal interconnect structure such as a dual damascene structure is disclosed. The method includes providing a substrate; providing a dielectric layer having trench openings and via openings on the substrate, wherein the ratio of the sum of the areas of the trench openings to the sum of the areas of the via openings is between 1 and 300; wherein the via opening bottom has a width of less than about 25 μm; and electroplating a metal in the trench openings and via openings. An interconnect structure having at least one void-free via is further disclosed.

A method for forming a semiconductor structure includes forming a dielectric layer over a substrate. A first non-conductive barrier layer is formed over the dielectric layer. At least one opening is formed through the first non-conductive barrier layer and within the dielectric layer. A second non-conductive barrier layer is formed over the first non-conductive barrier layer and within the opening. At least a portion of the second non-conductive barrier layer is removed, thereby at least partially exposing a top surface of the first non-conductive barrier layer and a bottom surface of the opening, with the second non-conductive barrier layer remaining on sidewalls of the opening. A seed layer and conductive layer is then formed and a single polishing operation removes the seed layer and conductive layer.
