In order to further specify spirit of the present invention and essence, hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
Fig. 6 to Figure 10 is the cross-sectional view of the copper interconnection structure forming process that provides of embodiments of the invention.
With reference to figure 6, provide Semiconductor substrate 200, the first interconnection structure 210 that described Semiconductor substrate 200 surfaces are formed with first medium layer 220 and run through described first medium layer 220.
In the present embodiment, described Semiconductor substrate 200 is silicon substrate or SOI substrate, and in the described Semiconductor substrate 200 and/or surface also is formed with other semiconductor device (not shown).
The material of described the first interconnection structure 210 is any electric conducting materials that can be used for interconnection structure, such as copper or tungsten.Because the speed that copper spreads in silicon materials is very fast, so in the present embodiment, the material that is formed directly into the bottom interconnection structure on silicon materials surface does not adopt copper.
With reference to figure 7, form second medium layer 230 at described first medium layer 220 and the first interconnection structure 210 surfaces, the material of described second medium layer 230 contains oxygen atom, and described second medium layer 230 has the through hole that exposes described the first interconnection structure 210.
In the present embodiment, adopt first plasma reinforced chemical vapour deposition technique to form described second medium layer 230; Then form the first mask layer on described second medium layer 230 surface, described the first mask layer has the first opening, and the position of described the first opening is corresponding with the position of described through hole; Then along the described second medium layer 230 of described the first opening etched portions thickness, form the first through hole 240a; After forming the first through hole 240a, form the second mask layer in the bottom of described the first through hole 240a, described the second mask layer has the second opening, and the width of described the second opening is less than the width of described the first opening; Along the described second medium layer 230 of described the second opening etching, until expose described the first interconnection structure 210, form the second through hole 240b again.Described the first through hole 240a and the second through hole 240b consist of the through hole that exposes described the first interconnection structure 210.
In the present embodiment, the material of described second medium layer 230 is low-k materials (the k value is lower than 3.0), and described second medium layer 230 is comprised of elements such as silicon, carbon, oxygen, hydrogen.In one embodiment, the material of described second medium layer 230 is black diamonds.
The degree of depth and the width of described the first through hole 240a and the second through hole 240b can be regulated according to arts demand.In other embodiments, described through hole can also have different structures and shape.
With reference to figure 8, form alloy barrier layer 250 in sidewall and the bottom of described through hole.
Described alloy barrier layer 250 is single coating, for example is the single coating of manganese tantalum alloy, the single coating of aluminium tantalum alloy, or the single coating of titanium tantalum alloy.
In the present embodiment, the formation technique of described alloy barrier layer 250 is physical gas-phase deposition (PVD).
In the present embodiment, described alloy barrier layer 250 is the 20-50 dust at the thickness of the sidewall of described through hole, is the 50-100 dust at the thickness of described via bottoms.If the thickness of described alloy barrier layer 250 is too small, possibly can't stop copper atom in the copper layer of follow-up formation to described second medium layer 230 diffusion, can't stop that also oxygen atom in the described second medium layer 230 is to the copper layer diffusion of follow-up formation; If the thickness of described alloy barrier layer 250 is excessive, can reduces the width of the copper layer of follow-up formation, thereby increase resistance value.
Again because adopting PVD technique to form in the process of described alloy barrier layer 250, upper surface at described second medium layer 230, the sidewall of described through hole, the deposition rate of the bottom of described through hole is different, the speed of growth at the sidewall of through hole is the slowest, the speed of growth at the upper surface of described second medium layer 230 is the fastest, so for so that described alloy barrier layer 250 is enough thick in enough barrier effects can be provided at the sidewall of described through hole, described alloy barrier layer is the 20-50 dust at the thickness of the sidewall of described through hole, thickness in described via bottoms is the 50-100 dust, and the thickness on described second medium layer 230 surface is the 50-150 dust.
