Abstract: A cap or barrier layer that can prevent the migration of impurities in low dielectric constant material, thereby preventing the impurities from attacking conductive elements in subsequent levels of a multi-level integrated circuit structure. The integrated circuit by may be fabricated by disposing the diffusion-preventing barrier layer between a first dielectric layer and the conductive layer at an upper level of the integrated circuit. The diffusion preventing barrier layer may be formed in-situ over the impurity containing dielectric material with the subsequent disposition of a metal layer thereover, and further processing of a multi-layer dielectric structure to include polishing. The in-situ deposition of the cap or barrier layer prevents the exposure of the impurity containing layer to atmosphere, thereby avoiding contamination of the layer by moisture absorption, hydrogen absorption, or the like. In an exemplary embodiment, the diffusion preventing barrier layer is a material containing silicon oxide or silicon rich silicon oxide SiOx, where x is preferably less than 2.

Abstract: A method for making a semiconductor device (10) includes the steps of forming a first conductive layer (50) adjacent a substrate (52), forming an etch stop layer (54) on the conductive layer, and forming a dielectric layer (56) on the etch stop layer. The dielectric layer includes a material having a low dielectric constant, and a via (12) is formed through the dielectric layer to expose the etch stop layer at the bottom, with porous sidewalls (16) being produced. The exposed etch stop layer (54) is etched using an etchant that cooperates with etched material from the etch stop layer to form a polymeric layer (64) to coat the porous sidewalls of the via. Since the etchant cooperates with the etched material from the etch stop layer to form the polymeric layer coating the porous sidewalls of the via, a separate coating layer deposition step is not required after the via is etched and cleaned. After the porous sidewalls have been coated and polymeric material has been etched from the bottom of the via, a barrier metal layer (66) is formed on the polymeric layer (64), a seed layer (68) is formed on the barrier metal layer, and a second conductive layer (70) is formed on the seed layer contacting the first conductive layer in the via.

Abstract: A method of forming a multi-layered semiconductor structure having substrate (20) comprises the steps of forming an alignment feature (60) in or on substrate (20), and aligning lithography mask (140) using alignment feature (60) with a Scattering with Angular Limitation in Projection Electron-beam Lithography (SCALPEL) tool (100) having an electron beam source (110) for directing an electron beam toward semiconductor structure (10). The alignment feature (60) is detected as it backscatters a greater amount of electrons than the surrounding substrate (20). This information may then be used to align lithography mask (140). The alignment feature (60) may include shallow trench (22, Fig. 1) containing silicon dioxide (30) and a high atomic number material (50) selected from tungsten, tantalum, cobalt, titanium, or the silicides and nitrides of these metals. The alignment feature (60) may be formed in a polysilicon layer on a silicon dioxide layer.

Abstract: A cap or barrier that can prevent the migration of impurities in low dielectric constant material, thereby preventing the impurities from attacking conductive elements in subsequent levels of a multi-level integrated circuit structure. The integrated circuit may be fabricated by disposing the diffusion-preventing barrier layer (104) between a first dielectric layer (103) and the conductive layer (201) at an upper level of the integrated circuit. The diffusion preventing barrier layer may be formed in-situ over the impurity containing dielectric material with the subsequent disposition of a metal layer thereover, and further processing of a multi-layer dielectric structure to include polishing. The in-situ deposition of the cap or barrier layer prevents the exposure of the impurity containing layer to atmosphere, thereby avoiding contamination of the layer by moisture absorption, hydrogen absorption, or the like. In an exemplary embodiment, the diffusion preventing barrier layer is a material containing silicon oxide or silicon rich silicon oxide SiO x , where x is preferably less than 2 and the first dielectric layer is fluorosilicate glass (FSG).
