Tungsten nitride barrier layer deposition
Abstract:
Provided herein are methods of tungsten nitride (WN) deposition. Also provided are stacks for tungsten (W) contacts to silicon germanium (SiGe) layers and methods for forming them. The stacks include SiGe/tungsten silicide (WSix)/WN/W layers, with WSix providing an ohmic contact between the SiGe and WN layers. Also provided are methods for reducing fluorine (F) attack of underlying layers in deposition of W-containing films using tungsten hexafluoride (WF6). Apparatuses to perform the methods are also provided.
