摘要:
Introducing at least one metal such as cobalt, molybdenum, metal carbonyl, tungsten, platinum, or other suitable metal to a focused ion beam. Introducing the focused ion beam to a substrate within a processing chamber. Forming at least one layer over a substrate. Applying heat to the layer by, for example, a laser.
摘要:
A plurality of lower-level metal interconnects are formed over a semiconductor substrate. A first fluorine-containing insulating film, made of a fluorine-doped insulator, is formed to fill in gaps between adjacent ones of the lower-level metal interconnects over the semiconductor substrate. An interlevel insulating film is formed over the lower-level metal interconnects and the first fluorine-containing insulating film. And a plurality of upper-level metal interconnects are formed on the interlevel insulating film. The interlevel insulating film includes: a second fluorine-containing insulating film made of a fluorine-doped insulator; and a silicon-rich insulating film containing a larger quantity of silicon than a quantity defined by stoichiometry.
