    Abstract: A trench is formed in an insulation film formed on top of a semiconductor substrate, and a barrier metal film is formed on the surface of the trench. After a copper or copper alloy film is formed on the barrier metal film, an oxygen absorption film in which a standard energy of formation of an oxidation reaction in a range from room temperature to 400° C. is negative, and in which an absolute value of the standard energy of formation is larger than that of the barrier metal film is formed, and the assembly is heated in a temperature range of 200 to 400° C. A semiconductor device can thereby be provided that has highly reliable wiring, in which the adhesion to the barrier metal film in the copper interface is enhanced, copper diffusion in the interface is suppressed, and electromigration and stress migration are prevented.

    Abstract: An interconnect structure for integrated circuits incorporates manganese silicate and manganese silicon nitride layers that completely surrounds copper wires in integrated circuits and methods for making the same are provided. The manganese silicate forms a barrier against copper diffusing out of the wires, thereby protecting the insulator from premature breakdown, and protecting transistors from degradation by copper. The manganese silicate and manganese silicon nitride also promote strong adhesion between copper and insulators, thus preserving the mechanical integrity of the devices during manufacture and use. The strong adhesion at the copper-manganese silicate and manganese silicon nitride interfaces also protect against failure by electromigration of the copper during use of the devices. The manganese-containing sheath also protects the copper from corrosion by oxygen or water from its surroundings.

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor wafer device, includes the steps of: (a) forming lower wiring patterns over a semiconductor wafer, the lower wiring patterns being connected to semiconductor elements in a circuit area; (b) forming an interlevel insulating film with a planarized surface over the semiconductor wafer, covering the lower wiring patterns and having a planarized surface; and (c) forming via conductors connected to the lower wiring patterns and wiring patterns disposed on the via conductors in the circuit area and conductor patterns corresponding to the wiring patterns in a peripheral area other than the circuit area, by embedding the via conductors, wiring patterns and conductor patterns in the interlevel insulating film, the conductive patterns being electrically isolated. The method can form a desired wiring structure and can prevent an increase of the percentage of defective devices in an effective wafer area.
