    摘要: Compositions useful for chemical vapor delivery (CVD) formation of copper layers in semiconductor integrated circuits, e.g., interconnect metallization in semiconductor device structures, as an adhesive seed layer for plating, for the deposition of a thin-film recording head or for circuitization of packaging components. The copper precursor formulation may include one or more copper precursors, e.g., a precursor of the formula hfac(Cu)L where L is a low-cost ligand such as an alkene and/or alkyne such as [(hfac)Cu]2 (DMDVS). The formulation may include in addition to the copper precursor(s) one or more low-cost ligand species such as alkenes, alkynes, dienes and combinations thereof, to increase thermal stability of the formulation and provide enhanced vaporization properties for CVD.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for depositing a metal and/or metal nitride layer on a substrate by the thermal or plasma enhanced disassociation of an organometallic precursor having the formula of (Cp(R)n)xM(CO)y−x, in the presence of a processing gas, such as argon, hydrogen, or ammonia. In one embodiment the metal or metal nitride film is deposited at a pressure of less than about 20 Torr. The deposited metal or metal nitride layer may then be exposed to a plasma to remove contaminants, densify the layer, and reduce layer resistivity. The layer is useful as a liner or barrier layer for conducting metals and high dielectric constant materials in integrated circuit manufacturing.

    摘要: A method of monitoring the synthesis of a PGO spin-coating precursor solution includes monitoring heating of the solution with a UV spectrometer and terminating the heating step when a solution property reaches a predetermined value. The method utilizes the starting materials of lead acetate trihydrate (Pb(OAc)2.3H2O) and germanium alkoxide (Ge(OR)4 (R=C2H5 and CH(CH3)2)). The organic solvent is di(ethylene glycol)ethyl ether. The mixed solution of lead and di(ethylene glycol)ethyl ether is heated in an atmosphere of air at a temperature no greater than 190° C., and preferably no greater than 185° C. for a time period in a range of approximately eighty-five minutes. During the heating step the solution properties are monitored to determine when the reaction is complete and when decomposition of the desired product begins to take place. The solution is then added to germanium di(ethylene glycol)ethyl ether to make the PGO spin-coating solution. This second step also entails heating the solution to a temperature no greater than 190° C. for a time period in a range of 0.5 to 2.0 hours. This heating step is also monitored with a UV spectrometer to determine when the heating step should be terminated. The process results in a PGO precursor solution suitable for use in spin-coating.

    摘要: A method for chemical-vapor deposition of a material film adds precursor decomposition by-product to the precursor flow to suppress premature gas-phase precursor decomposition and improve process repeatability and film quality. In one embodiment, CVD cobalt films are deposited with carbonyl precursors with reduced premature gas-phase reaction and particulate generation by the addition of excess carbon monoxide to the process chamber comprising the precursor flow. The addition of carbon monoxide not only suppresses gas-phase reaction but also improves cobalt film purity. The addition of excess carbon monoxide to CVD cobalt precursor flow provides repeatable deposition of glue and nucleation layers to support CVD copper, and is extendable to the deposition of high purity CVD cobalt for other applications and with other precursors, and also extendable for CVD CoSi2 films and other cobalt-containing applications.
