摘要
The electromigration resistance of capped Cu or Cu alloy interconnects is significantly improved and hillock formation is significantly reduced by sequentially and contiguously treating the exposed planarized surface of in-laid Cu with a plasma containing NH3 and N2, ramping up the introduction of trimethylsilane and then initiating deposition of a silicon carbide capping layer. Embodiments include treating the exposed surface of in-laid Cu with a soft NH3 plasma diluted with N2, shutting off the power, discontinuing the N2 flow and introducing He, then ramping up the introduction of trimethylsilane in three stages, and then initiating plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition of a silicon carbide capping layer, while maintaining substantially the same temperature of 335° C. throughout plasma treatment and silicon carbide capping layer deposition. Embodiments also include forming Cu dual damascene structures formed in dielectric material having a dielectric constant (k) less than 3.9.
