Abstract

Multi-layer SiN barrier film with high breakdown and low leakage is developed for Cu low k interconnects and is compared with the SiCNH barrier film used at previous technology nodes. Ultra-thin SiN barrier cap film also provides high conformality and fills recess in Cu lines observed post CMP. A significant enhancement in electro migration (EM) performance was obtained by selectively depositing Co on top of Cu lines followed by conformal multi-layer SiN barrier film. Further EM lifetime improvement is obtained by using a Co liner to form a wrap around structure with completely encapsulated Cu. An integrated in-situ preclean/ metal/dielectric cap chamber was used to avoid any oxidation of Cu/Co layers. Kinetic studies of CVD Co liner/Co cap samples show significant increase in EM activation energy (1.7 eV) over samples with dielectric only barrier film (0.9-1 eV). The complete wrap around structure with Co liner and Co cap shows improved device reliability.

用于Cu低k互连的先进金属和介质阻挡帽膜
针对Cu -低k互连开发了高击穿、低泄漏的多层SiN势垒膜,并与以往技术节点上使用的SiCNH势垒膜进行了比较。超薄的SiN阻挡帽膜也提供了高的一致性,并填补了CMP后观察到的Cu线的凹槽。通过选择性地在Cu线上沉积Co,然后在共形多层SiN势垒膜上沉积Co,可以显著提高电迁移(EM)性能。通过使用Co衬垫形成完全封装Cu的包裹结构,进一步提高了EM寿命。采用集成的原位预清洁/金属/介电帽室来避免Cu/Co层的氧化。化学气相沉积Co衬垫/Co帽样品的动力学研究表明,与仅具有介电阻挡膜的样品(0.9-1 eV)相比,其EM活化能(1.7 eV)显著增加。采用Co衬垫和Co帽的完整缠绕结构,提高了设备的可靠性。
