    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an interconnecting level capacitor structure and a forming method thereof. SOLUTION: The capacitor structure comprises a first insulating layer disposed on an interconnecting level surface of an integrated circuit, first and second conductors which are formed in the first insulating layer and are isolated by a trench delimited by the first insulating layer, a first conductive barrier layer which is disposed on the first and second conductors and connects the first and second conductors, a second insulting layer disposed on the first conductive barrier layer, a second conductive barrier layer disposed on the second insulating layer, and a third conductor which is disposed in the trench and on the second conductive barrier layer. A capacitance is increased by using regions on a top surface, a bottom surface, and a side surface of the capacitor structure. It is possible to obtain an on-cap decoupling capacitor having a larger size without sacrificing a precious silicon space.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve adhesiveness of a deposited inorganic barrier film to a copper surface of a copper interconnection structure by including exposure of a copper layer in an interconnected semiconductor structure to a reducing plasma before the formation of the inorganic barrier film on the copper interconnection structure. SOLUTION: A copper interconnection structure is exposed to a reducing plasma before an inorganic barrier film 24 is deposited. This reducing plasma is a non-oxidizing, i.e., oxygen-atom-free plasma atmosphere. A suitable plasma is selected from H2, N2, NH3, and rare gas, but it is not limited to these. Further, a combination of more than two of these reducing plasmas such as N2 and H2 is intended. N2 and NH3 are very preferable among these reducing plasmas. The adhesiveness of the inorganic barrier layer 24 to copper 20 can be improved by using this reducing plasma exposure process.

    Abstract: Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) structures, methods of manufacture and design structures are provided. The method of forming a MEMS structure includes forming fixed actuator electrodes (115) and a contact point on a substrate. The method further includes forming a MEMS beam (100) over the fixed actuator electrodes and the contact point. The method further includes forming an array of actuator electrodes (105') in alignment with portions of the fixed actuator electrodes, which are sized and dimensioned to prevent the MEMS beam from collapsing on the fixed actuator electrodes after repeating cycling. The array of actuator electrodes are formed in direct contact with at least one of an underside of the MEMS beam and a surface of the fixed actuator electrodes.

    Abstract: A chip includes a CMOS structure having a bulk device (20) disposed in a first region (24) of a semiconductor substrate (50) in conductive communication with an underlying bulk region (18) of the substrate, the first region (24) and the bulk region (20) having a first crystal orientation. A SOI device (10) is disposed in a semiconductor-on-insulator ("SOI") layer (14) separated from the bulk region of the substrate by a buried dielectric layer (16), the SOI layer having a different crystal orientation from the first crystal orientation. In one example, the bulk device includes a p-type field effect transistor ("PFET") and the SOI device includes an n-type field effect transistor ("NFET") device. Alternatively, the bulk device can include an NFET and the SOI device can include a PFET. When the SOI device has a gate conductor (11) in conductive communication with a gate conductor (21) of the bulk device, charging damage can occur to the SOI device, except for the presence of diodes in reverse-biased conductive communication with the bulk region. The diodes are operable to conduct a discharge current to the bulk region when either a voltage on the gate conductor or a voltage on the source or drain region of the SOI device exceeds a diode's breakdown voltage.
