A method of fabricating a bottom electrode includes providing a dielectric layer. An atomic layer deposition is performed to form a bottom electrode material on the dielectric layer. Then, an oxidation process is performed to oxidize part of the bottom electrode material. The oxidized bottom electrode material transforms into an oxide layer. The bottom electrode material which is not oxidized becomes a bottom electrode. A top surface of the bottom electrode includes numerous hill-like profiles. Finally, the oxide layer is removed.

Abstract:
Atomic layer deposition is enhanced using plasma. Plasma begins prior to flowing a second precursor into a chamber. The second precursor reacts with a first precursor to deposit a layer on a substrate. The layer may include at least one element from each of the first and second precursors. The layer may be TaN, and the precursors may be TaF5 and NH3. The plasma may begin during purge gas flow between a pulse of the first precursor and a pulse of the second precursor. Thermal energy assists the reaction of the precursors to deposit the layer on the substrate. The thermal energy may be greater than generally accepted for ALD (e.g., more than 300 degrees Celsius).
