The present invention discloses a novel integrated circuit capacitor and a method of forming such a capacitor. The capacitor formation begins with a base electrode 18 adjacent an insulating region 26. This base electrode 18 can comprise either polysilicon or a metal. A layer 28 of a first material, such as a siliciding metal, is formed over the base electrode 18 as well as the adjacent insulating region. A self-aligned capacitor electrode 12 can then be formed by reacting the first material 28 with the base electrode 18 and removing unreacted portions of the first material 28 from the insulating region 26. The capacitor is then completed by forming a dielectric layer 16 over the self-aligned capacitor electrode 12 and a second capacitor electrode 14 over the dielectric layer 16.

摘要:
A lower electrode of a capacitor element is formed by manufacturing a crown structure while using a first conducting material such as titanium nitride or the like excellent in mechanical strength as a base material and by forming a film of a second conducting material such as ruthenium or the like, which is comparatively difficult to be oxidized, on a surface of the crown structure. First, ruthenium is deposited on a surface of the crown structure by using a sputtering method. Thereafter, the ruthenium (sputtered ruthenium) placed in a peripheral region of the crown structure is removed by etching, and a film of ruthenium is further formed on a surface of the crown structure by using a CVD method while using the sputtered ruthenium as a seed layer.

A capacitor formed in a deep-hole has a bottom electrode, a capacitor insulator film and a top electrode. The bottom electrode includes a sidewall conductive film formed on the sidewall of a top portion of the deep-hole, and an inner conductive film formed on the sidewall conductive film and the sidewall and bottom of the through-hole. The inner conductive film is in contact with the underlying contact plug.
摘要:
A ruthenium electrode with a low amount of oxygen contamination and high thermal stability is formed by a chemical vapor deposition method. In the chemical vapor deposition method using an organoruthenium compound as a precursor, the introduction of an oxidation gas is limited to when the precursor is supplying, and the reaction is allowed to occur at a low oxygen partial pressure. Consequently, it is possible to form a ruthenium film with a low amount of oxygen contamination. Further, after formation of the ruthenium film, annealing at not less than the formation temperature is performed, thereby forming a ruthenium film with high thermal stability.
