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.

A metal nanodot formation method includes: loading a target substrate inside a processing container of a processing apparatus; depositing a plurality of metal nanodots on a surface of the target substrate by a sequence of: supplying a CO gas from a CO gas container which stores the CO gas into a raw material container which stores a metal carbonyl compound; generating gas of the metal carbonyl compound; introducing the generated gas of the metal carbonyl compound as a mixture gas containing the CO gas into the processing container; and decomposing the metal carbonyl compound on the target substrate, and directly introducing the CO gas from the CO gas container into the processing container, in a state where the introduction of the mixture gas into the processing container is stopped, such that the CO gas is brought into contact with the metal nanodots on the surface of the target substrate.

摘要:
The current invention teaches a process to add transition metals to a substrate with careful, spacial control to build up regions selectively, and a machine to enable this process to be performed. The process is amenable to doping with other gases to provide dispersion strengthening and/or to form metal matrix composites. In addition, the process is capable of forming laminar or topologically layered materials. In the present invention, a heated nozzle with a variable orifice projects carbonyl gas or gases at the appropriate temperature to precise locations on a surface. The coordinates on the substrate over which the nozzle is located can be computer controlled. Furthermore, the orifice of the nozzle and the flow rate are controlled to widen or narrow the area of deposition. The substrate can be heated to a temperature where transition metal carbonyl deposition is optimal or near optimal, or heated below the optimal region such that the heated carbonyl gas from the nozzle leads to rapid deposition in the desired localized region. The structure can be built up into complex shapes as desired.

The deposition process and the CO gas introduction process are repeated multiple times.
