Abstract:
A method of forming low resistivity conductive lines on a semiconductor substrate is disclosed. In practicing the method a multichamber tool is used to advantage by forming a first doped polysilicon layer (14) on the surface of a substrate (12), forming a second undoped layer (16) on the doped layer (14), while maintaining the work piece under a vacuum environment, moving the substrate to a second chamber and thereafter forming a silicide containing layer (17) on the undoped polysilicon layer (16). Various techniques may be used to deposit either the polysilicon or the silicide layer such as sputtering may also be used.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To form a tungsten silicide film in which cracking or layer crack is lowered with satisfactory matching properties by holding uniformity of a wafer and stability of treatment even if fluorine concentration is low and a ratio of silane to the tungsten is changed in a relatively wide range. CONSTITUTION: Tungsten silicide film (WSix) is formed by reducing tungsten hexafluoride (WF6 ) with a reducing agent of mixture of dichlorosilane (SiH2 Cl2 ), silane (SiH4 ) and hydrogen and subjecting to chemical vapor deposition. According to the method, the WSix film is generated in a CVD reactor for treatment at low pressure and a wafer temperature of about 300 to 550 [ deg.C]. In the above- described embodiment, before the WSix film is deposited, a thin nucleus generating layer is deposited. The deposited film contains low fluorine concentration and excellent uniformity and treatment stability of the wafer.
