Embodiments of the invention provide a method for integrating a Ru barrier film with good barrier properties into Cu metallization. The method includes exposing a substrate to a Ta-, Ti-, or W-containing precursor at a substrate temperature below the thermal decomposition temperature of the Ta-, Ti-, or W-containing precursor on the substrate to form a chemisorbed seed layer of partially decomposed Ta-, Ti-, or W-containing precursor on the substrate. The method further includes depositing a Ru barrier film on the chemisorbed seed layer, and forming bulk Cu metal on the Ru barrier film. According to additional embodiments, an interconnect structure and method of forming are provided.

A method of forming a Cu wiring in a trench or hole formed in a substrate is provided. The method includes forming a barrier film on the surface of the trench or hole, forming a Ru film on the barrier film, and embedding copper in the trench or hole by forming a Cu film on the Ru film using PVD while heating the substrate such that migration of copper into the trench or hole occurs.
摘要:
In a Cu wiring forming method which is followed by a post-process including a treatment of a temperature of 500° C. or higher, an adhesion film made of a metal having a lattice spacing that differs from the lattice spacing of Cu by 10% or less is formed on a substrate having a trench and/or a hole in the surface such that the adhesion film is deposited on at least the bottom and side surfaces of the trench and/or hole. A Cu film is formed on the adhesion film to fill the trench and/or hole. An annealing process is performed on the substrate on which the Cu film has been formed at 350° C. or higher. The CU film is polished to leave only the part of the Cu film which corresponds to the trench and/or hole. A cap is formed on the polished Cu film to form a Cu wiring.
摘要:
A method, computer readable medium, and system for vapor deposition on a substrate that disposes a substrate in a process space of a processing system that is vacuum isolated from a transfer space of the processing system, processes the substrate at either of a first position or a second position in the process space while maintaining vacuum isolation from the transfer space, and deposits a material on said substrate at either the first position or the second position. As such, the system includes a first assembly having a process space configured to facilitate material deposition, a second assembly coupled to the first assembly and having a transfer space to facilitate transfer of the substrate into and out of the deposition system, a substrate stage connected to the second assembly and configured to support and translate the substrate between a first position in the transfer space to a second position in the process space. The system includes a sealing assembly configured to impede gas flow between the process space and the transfer space during translation of the substrate within the process space.
摘要:
A deposition method for forming a thin film on a processed substrate by supplying a first gas including a metal, nitrogen, and carbon and a second gas reducing the first gas into a process vessel where a substrate holding table for holding the processed substrate is provided inside thereof, the deposition method includes a first step supplying the first process gas into the process vessel, and a second step supplying the second process gas so that the second process gas is-plasma-excited by a plasma-exciting part provided in the process vessel. A content of at least one of the metal, nitrogen, and carbon in the thin film is controlled by changing a radio frequency power applied to the plasma-exciting part.

A method and precursor for forming and integrating a Ta-containing layer in semiconductor processing. The tantalum precursor has the formula (CpR1)(CpR2)TaH(CO), where Cp is a cyclopentadienyl functional group and R1 and R2 are H or alkyl groups. The method includes providing a substrate in a process chamber of a deposition system, and exposing a process gas comprising the tantalum precursor to the substrate to form the Ta-containing layer. The Ta-containing layer may be treated to remove contaminants and modify the layer. The Ta-containing layer may contain tantalum metal, tantalum carbide, tantalum nitride, or tantalum carbonitride, or a combination thereof, and may be deposited in a TCVD, ALD, or PEALD process. A semiconductor device containing a Ta-containing layer formed on a patterned substrate containing one or more vias or trenches is provided.
