With reference to figure 4, barrier layer 130 is formed in 120 bottom and side walls of the opening, the barrier layer 130 is adulterated for Si Barrier layer.
The barrier layer 130 is used to implement the isolation between formed interconnection structure and the dielectric layer 110, stops and is formed The conductive material atoms permeating of interconnection structure, prevents conductive material atoms permeating from entering dielectric layer 110 and influencing dielectric layer 110 It is electrically isolated performance.Due to the barrier layer that the barrier layer 130 is Si doping, and Si can with the atomic reaction of conductive material into Key, therefore the barrier layer of Si doping can effectively inhibit the diffusion of conductive material atom, be conducive to improve the barrier layer 130 Blocking capability, prevent conductive material atoms permeating from entering dielectric layer, reduce the dielectric layer 110 and time breakdown phenomenon occur, Improve the reliability for forming interconnection structure.In the present embodiment, in the step of forming barrier layer 130, the barrier layer 130 Material be Si doping TaN.
The step of forming barrier layer 130 includes:The barrier layer 130 is formed using atom layer deposition process.Due to The stepcoverage performance that atom layer deposition process forms film layer is preferable, so forming the stop by atom layer deposition process The way of layer 130 can reduce and form interconnection structure away from protrusion, reduction is formed on 100 one side side wall of substrate in opening 120 Technology difficulty, expand process window.
Specifically, the barrier layer 130 is laminated construction, so the step of forming barrier layer 130 includes:Described The first Si doping TaN layers 131 are formed in 120 bottom and side walls that are open;TaN layers are formed on the first Si doping TaN layers 131 132;The 2nd Si doping TaN layers 133 are formed on the TaN layers 132.
The first Si doping TaN layers 131 are used to implement the connection between the barrier layer 130 and the dielectric layer 110, The blocking capability on the barrier layer 130 is improved, strengthens the adhesiveness between the barrier layer 130 and the dielectric layer 110;It is described TaN layers 132 are used to prevent the conductive material atoms permeating of formed interconnection structure;The 2nd Si doping TaN layers 133 are for real Existing connection between the barrier layer 130 and formed interconnection structure is also used for and the conductive material atomic reaction bonding, resistance The conductive material atoms permeating is kept off, to improve the blocking capability on the barrier layer 130.
The doping in the barrier layer 130 and the interface of the dielectric layer 110, the first Si doping TaN layers 131 Si atoms can form TaNSi-O-SiCH with the material bonding of the TaN layers 132 and the dielectric layer 110, so as to repair boundary Local defect at face improves the consistency on the barrier layer 130, enhances the blocking capability on the barrier layer 130, improves institute's shape Into the reliability of interconnection structure.In addition, the material bonding of the Si atoms of doping and the TaN layers 132 and the dielectric layer 110, The adhesiveness between the barrier layer 130 and the dielectric layer 110 can also be enhanced.
The doping concentration of Si should not be too large also unsuitable too small in the first Si doping TaN layers 131.The first Si doping It, can be with the material bonding of the TaN layers 132 and the dielectric layer 110 if the doping concentration of Si is too small in TaN layers 131 Si atoms are very little, can influence the blocking capability on the barrier layer 130;If the doping of Si in the first Si doping TaN layers 131 Concentration is too big, can increase the resistance of formed interconnection structure.Specifically, the step of forming the first Si doping TaN layer 131 In, by atomic quantity percentage, the doping concentration of Si is in the range of 5% to 15% in the first Si doping TaN layers 131.
Further, since the Si atoms of doping are reacting bonding with the interface of the dielectric layer 110, away from the dielectric layer 110 Si atoms and the probability of 110 material of dielectric layer reaction bonding are smaller, to increasing 130 blocking capability of barrier layer Effect it is weaker;And the Si atoms away from the dielectric layer 110 can increase the resistance of formed interconnection structure.So in order to control System forms the resistance of interconnection structure, in the present embodiment, is formed in the step of the first Si adulterates TaN layer 131, edge is given an account of Matter layer 110 is directed toward on the direction of the TaN layers 132, and the doping concentration of Si is gradually reduced.
The doping in the barrier layer 130 and the interface of the interconnection structure, the 2nd Si doping TaN layers 133 Si atoms can react bonding with the TaN layers 132 and the interconnection structure, so as to enhance the stop energy on the barrier layer 130 Power improves the reliability for forming interconnection structure.In addition, Si atoms and the TaN layers 132 and the interconnection structure of doping Material bonding can also enhance the adhesiveness between the barrier layer 130 and the dielectric layer 110.
The doping concentration of Si should not be too large also unsuitable too small in the 2nd Si doping TaN layers 133.The 2nd Si doping It, can be former with the TaN layers 132 and the Si of the interconnection structure material bonding if the doping concentration of Si is too small in TaN layers 133 It is sub very little, the blocking capability on the barrier layer 130 can be influenced;If the doping concentration of Si in the 2nd Si doping TaN layers 133 It is too big, the resistance of formed interconnection structure can be increased.Specifically, in the step of forming the 2nd Si doping TaN layer 133, press Atomic quantity percentage, the 2nd Si adulterate the doping concentration of Si in TaN layers 133 in the range of 5% to 15%.
Further, since the Si atoms of doping are reacting bonding with the interface of interconnection structure, close to the TaN layers 132 Si atoms and the probability of interconnection structure material reaction bonding are smaller, weaker to the effect of increase 130 blocking capability of barrier layer; And the Si atoms of the close TaN layers 132 can increase the resistance of formed interconnection structure.So in the present embodiment, institute is formed In the step of stating the 2nd Si doping TaN layer 133, it is directed toward along the TaN layers 132 on the direction of the opening 120, the doping of Si is dense Degree gradually increase.
Specifically, the step of forming the first Si doping TaN layer 131 includes:It carries out first mixing Si materials at least once Deposition, wherein, first includes the step of mixing Si materials deposition:The first material containing Ta is deposited in 120 bottom and side walls of the opening The bed of material;The first material layer containing Si is deposited in first material layer containing Ta;First is deposited in first material layer containing Si Material layer containing N.
Wherein, the step of depositing the first material layer containing Si includes:The first reaction gas containing Si is passed through, described first is anti-containing Si Gas is answered to include silane;Remove first reaction gas containing Si.
In the present embodiment, forming the step of the first Si adulterates TaN layer 131 includes:It carries out multiple first and mixes Si materials Deposition.So when Si materials deposition is mixed in progress multiple first, the flow for being passed through silane in the first reaction gas containing Si gradually reduces; Alternatively, being passed through the burst length of silane gradually reduces;Alternatively, the flow for being passed through silane in the first reaction gas containing Si gradually reduces And the burst length for being passed through silane gradually reduces.This way can reduce the probability that Si atoms participate in reaction, and reduction is formed Atomic layer in Si atoms doping concentration, and then formed the first Si is made to adulterate in TaN layers 131 along the dielectric layer 110 It is directed toward on the direction of the TaN layers 132, the doping concentration of Si is gradually reduced.
It is mixed it should be noted that carrying out multiple first in the step of Si materials deposit, silane in the first reaction gas containing Si Flow should not it is too big also should not be too small.If the flow of silane is too big in the first reaction gas containing Si, can make to form the first Si The Si adulterated in doping TaN layers 131 is very little, can influence the blocking capability on formed barrier layer 130;First reaction gas containing Si If the flow of middle silane is too small, it is too many to make to be formed the Si adulterated in the first Si doping TaN layers 131, can increase institute's shape Into the resistance of interconnection structure.Specifically, in the present embodiment, carry out multiple first and mix in the step of Si materials deposit, described first In reaction gas containing Si the flow of silane from 300sccm to 500sccm in the range of be gradually reduced to 50sccm to 100sccm scopes It is interior.
It carries out in multiple first the step of mixing Si materials deposition, the rate for being passed through the gradually reduction of silane pulse time should not be too It greatly also should not be too small.If the rate for being passed through the gradually reduction of silane pulse time is too big, can make to form TaN layers of the first Si doping The Si adulterated in 131 is very little, can influence the blocking capability on formed barrier layer 130;Being passed through the silane pulse time is gradually reduced If rate it is too small, it is too many to make to be formed the Si adulterated in the first Si doping TaN layers 131, can increase to form interconnection The resistance of structure.Specifically, in the present embodiment, carry out multiple first and mix in the step of Si materials deposit, be passed through the pulse of silane Time from 300 milliseconds to 500 milliseconds in the range of gradually reduce in the range of 50 milliseconds to 100 milliseconds.
