摘要:
The invention includes constructions having two dielectric layers over a conductively-doped semiconductive material. One of the dielectric layers contains aluminum oxide, and the other contains a metal oxide other than aluminum oxide (such metal oxide can be, for example, one or more of hafnium oxide, tantalum oxide, titanium oxide and zirconium oxide). The layer containing aluminum oxide is between the layer containing metal oxide and the conductively-doped semiconductive material. The invention includes capacitor devices having one electrode containing conductively-doped silicon and another electrode containing one or more metals and/or metal compounds. At least two dielectric layers are formed between the two capacitor electrodes, with one of the dielectric layers containing aluminum oxide and the other containing a metal oxide other than aluminum oxide. The invention also includes methods of forming capacitor constructions.

The invention includes ALD-type methods in which two or more different precursors are utilized with one or more reactants to form a material. In particular aspects, the precursors are hafnium and aluminum, the only reactant is ozone, and the material is hafnium oxide predominantly in a tetragonal crystalline phase.

The invention includes a method of depositing a noble metal. A substrate is provided. The substrate has a first region and a second region. The first and second regions are exposed to a mixture comprising a precursor of a noble metal and an oxidant. During the exposure, a layer containing the noble metal is selectively deposited onto the first region relative to the second region. In particular applications, the first region can comprise borophosphosilicate glass, and the second region can comprise either aluminum oxide or doped non-oxidized silicon. The invention also includes capacitor constructions and methods of forming capacitor constructions.

In some embodiments, the invention may include utilization of at least one iteration of an ALD pulse sequence that has the pulse subsets M2-M1-R- and M1-(R-M2-)x: where x is at least 2; where M1 is a first metal-containing precursor comprising a first metal, M2 is a second metal-containing precursor comprising a second metal different from the first metal, and R is a reactant which reacts with one or both of the first and second metals. The ALD pulse sequence forms material over a substrate, and such material includes the first and second metals. The hyphen between pulses means that the second pulse directly follows the first pulse, with the term “directly follows” indicating that the second pulse either immediately follows the first pulse or that only a purge separates the first and second pulses.

The invention includes a dielectric mode from ALD-type methods in which two or more different precursors are utilized with one or more reactants to form the dielectric material. In particular aspects, the precursors are aluminum and hafnium and/or zirconium for materials made from a hafnium precursor, the hafnium oxide is predominantly in a tetragonal crystalline phase.
