Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrochemical deposition system for a chemical and/or electrolytic surface treatment of a substrate, a module for chemical and/or electrolytic surface treatment of a substrate in a process fluid, a use of the electrochemical deposition system or the module for chemical and/or electrolytic surface treatment for a metal deposition application and a manufacturing method for such electrochemical deposition system.
  • the invention relates in particular to an electrochemical deposition of copper.
  • Copper plating has been a key enabling technology towards advanced integration with better electrical and thermal conductivity since its adoption in the late 1990s.
  • One of the main drivers for its success was the development and adoption of organic additives that allowed the plating to be better controlled and to occur precisely how and where desired (e.g. from the bottom up in a so called via-hole) and allow complete, void-free filling with final smooth surface finish.
  • via aspect ratios increase, chemistry costs rise, and substrate manufacturing throughput increases, a continuous need arises to develop a method, which reduces process and equipment complexity, tool down time and lowers the cost of ownership (e.g. chemical consumption) with the same chemistry and process stability.
  • organic additives are consumed at a relatively high rate during the electrochemical deposition process or even during the idle time of the tool, because they break down when exposed to certain by-products of the electrolytic deposition process especially around the anode, or the multiple anodes, and when in direct contact with the high anode currents. This leads to shortened bath life, in many cases to process instabilities and of course, high process cost of ownership. Since the costs associated with these organic additives are substantial, methods to reduce the amounts of organics consumed were quickly being investigated. Another major downside and danger to the process results stems from the fact that the decomposition of the organic additives, which is often an oxidative process, leads very commonly to the formation of gas bubbles (e.g.
  • CO2 bubbles which can - during the process - approach and get into contact with the substrate and cause major distractions during the electrolytic deposition process.
  • the deposition uniformity and quality of the deposited layer can suffer significantly.
  • gas-bubbles formed in the electrolyte can handicap or even block the electrolyte flow through so called electrolyte and current flow distribution systems leading again to major deposition uniformity challenges by lowering the deposition rate in some places and occasionally even enhance the deposition rate in other places.
  • the pH value of the anode electrolyte has to kept typically much higher, requiring the use of multiple chemistry tanks with at least two different types of electrolyte, further adding costs and complexity to the system and making the deposition system very challenging to control and maintain.
  • this two-electrolyte solution of the prior art adds a major disadvantage for the application of pulse-reverse plating, which is a useful feature for uniform plating of difficult features.
  • Utilizing pulse reverse plating with this two electrolyte approach will force the proton concentration to equilibrate in the two electrolytes and with this limit again the plating efficiency, which was supposed to be solved by this solution.
  • the plating rate is limited by the inherent resistance of the ion selective membrane to copper ion crossing, which might not be a major obstacle in damascene or dual-damascene plating, but very problematic in high speed plating applications of e.g. copper redistribution layers and pillars for wafer level packaging.
  • An electrochemical deposition chamber includes a processing unit having a first flow system configured to convey a flow of a first processing fluid to a micro feature workpiece.
  • the chamber further includes an electrode unit having an electrode and a second flow system configured to convey a flow of a second processing fluid at least proximate to the electrode.
  • the chamber further includes a nonporous barrier between the processing unit and the electrode unit to separate the first and second processing fluids. The nonporous barrier is configured to allow cations or anions to flow through the barrier between the first and second processing fluids.
  • an electrochemical deposition system for a chemical and/or electrolytic surface treatment of a substrate.
  • the electrochemical deposition system comprises an anode, an anode enclosure, and a single electrolyte.
  • the anode enclosure extends at least partially around the anode.
  • the anode enclosure comprises a membrane.
  • the anode and the anode enclosure are arranged in the single electrolyte.
  • the single electrolyte is the only electrolyte of the electrochemical deposition system.
  • electrolyte may ease analysis techniques, bath and system maintenance, plus may eliminate added costs of purchasing, monitoring and discarding different electrolyte mixtures. Further, multiple chemistry tanks with chemically significantly different types of electrolyte are avoided, which allows reducing costs and system complexity. As a result, an elegant and simple electrochemical deposition system is provided.
  • the present electrochemical deposition system may allow a reduction of organic additive consumption and associated costs. This advantage can be achieved while maintaining optimal process conditions and process stability.
  • the present electrochemical deposition system may have no organic additive consumption during idle time and normal consumption during process time.
  • the term "normal” can be understood as comparable to conventional systems, because a certain level of consumption of the additives during the process is, more or less, unavoidable.
  • the present electrochemical deposition system may be in particular suitable for high speed plating.
  • High Speed Plating can be understood as a system or method in which one or two High Speed Plate(s) together with one or two substrates are immersed into an electrochemical deposition tank containing an electrolyte and one or several anodes. Within this tank filled with electrolyte, the electrolyte flow (and with this the electrical current distribution) is directed through the High Speed Plate(s) towards the substrate surface(s).
  • the electrochemical deposition system according to the present invention may also allow a plating of complex features with still a good plating efficiency by means of e.g. pulse-reverse plating.
  • the substrate may comprise a conductor plate, a semi-conductor substrate, a film substrate, an essentially plate-shaped, metal or metallized workpiece or the like.
  • the substrate may be held in a substrate holder.
  • the electrolyte can be understood as a liquid providing the function of an electrolyte.
  • the single electrolyte is the only electrolyte of the electrochemical deposition system. This means there is only one kind of electrolyte and not two or more different kinds of electrolytes. This is in contrast to the prior art systems, where two different electrolytes are used. Consequently, there may be only one circulation system for the chemistry and not two separate circulation systems for the different electrolytes as in the prior art systems.
  • the anode can be understood as a solid body or a plurality of bodies providing the function of an anode.
  • the anode enclosure can be understood as a housing, which receives the anode.
  • the anode enclosure extends at least partially around the anode. This can be understood in that the anode enclosure forms a cup-shaped container surrounding the anode.
  • the cup-shaped container comprises (like a cup) a sidewall, a bottom wall and an opening on top opposite to the bottom wall.
  • the sidewalls may be parallel (like a cylinder) or tapering towards the bottom or the top (like a cone).
  • the sidewall may surround the anode completely or at least partially.
  • the sidewall may be a full 360° circle or an open circle with at least an interruption.
  • the 360° circle can also be understood as not being described by rounded shapes, but consists of angles and straight lines describing in principle square, rectangular, trapezoidal or other known shapes to the one skilled in the art, supporting the required functionality.
  • the opening on top of the cup-shaped container might be at least partially covered by the membrane, which means the membrane may extend over the opening of the anode enclosure.
  • the anode enclosure may comprise a (in a top view) ring shaped cover element, which reduces a diameter of the opening and therefore a diameter of the membrane.
  • the anode enclosure may further comprise at least one of a channel for providing an electrical connection for the anode, a channel for supplying the electrolyte, a channel as a vent line to discharge e.g. gas bubbles, etc.
  • the cover element may comprise a channel as a vent line to discharge e.g. gas bubbles, etc.
  • the channel of the cover element may lead to the channel of the anode enclosure.
  • the anode and the anode enclosure are arranged in the single electrolyte. This can be understood in that the anode and the anode enclosure are completely or at least partially immersed in the electrolyte or are subjected to the electrolyte by e.g. spraying or the like.
  • the anode enclosure comprises a membrane.
  • membrane can be understood as a selective barrier, which allows some parts (small molecules, ions, other small particles, etc.) to pass through, but stops or at least reduces the passage of others.
  • the anode, the anode enclosure, and the single electrolyte are arranged in an electrochemical deposition tank or a process chamber.
  • the walls of the tank may comprise channels for the electrolyte, gas ventilation etc.
  • the tank may be covered or closed by the substrate (e.g. in a substrate holder) and/or a distribution body.
  • the invention may relate to an electrochemical deposition of copper.
  • the present electrochemical deposition system may allow very good results with depositing copper and in particular with copper damascene deposition and copper dual damascene deposition. Damascene deposition will be explained further below.
  • the present electrochemical deposition system may also allow a high speed plating of copper.
  • the anode is inert.
  • inert may be understood as not chemically reactive. Inert anodes provide the advantage that no anode replacement maintenance must be performed, as the deposition material can just be injected as solution into the electrolyte. Furthermore, the cost of injecting liquid deposition material directly into the electrolyte to replenish the consumed deposition material is moderate and comparable to using consumable solid deposition material as soluble anodes.
  • the anode enclosure may extend partially or completely around the anode.
  • the anode enclosure is arranged as a flow divider.
  • the flow divider can be understood as a body shaped to direct a flow.
  • the flow divider is configured to direct gas formed during deposition away from the substrate to be treated.
  • the flow divider thereby copes with a formation of gas bubbles at the anode during plating, which would otherwise lead to bubble defects on a substrate surface.
  • the flow divider is configured to redirect gas bubbles to where they can be vented without causing defects on the substrate, consequently protects the substrate and therefore leads to a better deposition uniformity and layer quality.
  • the membrane is tilted relative to the anode.
  • the membrane may have an angle in a range of 5° to 60° relative to the anode, preferably 5° to 45°, more preferably 5° to 30°.
  • the tilt may be implemented by fixing the membrane to the anode enclosure or to the cover element in different heights or by providing the sidewalls of the anode enclosure or the cover element with different heights and placing the membrane on top of the anode enclosure or the cover element.
  • the membrane is a bi-directional liquid permeable membrane.
  • the membrane may allow certain molecules or ions to pass through it by diffusion, but stops or at least reduces the passage of others. This function may apply in both directions, so from a first to a second side and from the second to the first side.
  • the membrane is intended to be used in a liquid or humid environment.
  • the membrane here is specifically permeable for the chemistry, but mostly impermeable for e.g. gas bubbles.
  • the membrane can be understood as semi permeable.
  • the bi-directional liquid permeable membrane or enclosure may offer a further reduction in organic additive consumption and the associated costs.
  • the bi-directional liquid permeable membrane is non-ionic specific.
  • the membrane is suitable for a wide range of ions and therefore does not need to be exchanged for different operation modes.
  • the bi-directional liquid permeable membrane is made of a polymer, in particular of polypropylene.
  • other plastic materials are possible.
  • the module for chemical and/or electrolytic surface treatment of a substrate in a process fluid comprises an electrochemical deposition system as described above and a distribution body.
  • the distribution body is arranged in an electrolyte of the electrochemical deposition system and comprises from one to a plurality of openings.
  • the use of only a single electrolyte may allow reducing system complexity and costs.
  • the anode and the anode enclosure comprising the membrane may allow reducing the organic additive consumption and respective costs.
  • the module may relate to an electrochemical deposition process of copper and in particular to an electrochemical deposition of copper damascene and/or copper dual-damascene process.
  • "Damascene" means that an e.g. silicon oxide insulator layer is patterned to create open trenches or vias exposing an underlying conductor layer. A layer or multiple layers of copper are deposited on top of this underlying conductor into the open patterns of the insulator layer creating an overfill, so that the copper extends above the top of the insulator layer, which is then polished of or removed by another means. Copper within the trenches or vias of the insulator layer is not removed and becomes the newly created patterned conductor layer. Damascene processes generally form and fill a single feature with copper per processing step. Dual-Damascene processes generally form and fill two features (e.g. via and trench) with copper at once per processing step. With the successive deposition and patterning of insulator layer and successive electrodeposition of copper, a multilayer interconnect structure may be created.
  • the distribution body is a diffusor plate configured to distribute a field of electrical current relative to the substrate.
  • the diffusor plate may comprise one, preferably a plurality of openings. Theses openings or drains may allow controlling an electrical current distribution relative to a surface of the substrate.
  • the diffusor plate may be a plate comprising a pattern of openings.
  • the distribution body is a high speed plate configured to distribute a flow of the electrolyte relative to the substrate and to distribute a field of electrical current relative to the substrate.
  • the high speed plate may comprise one, preferably a plurality of openings or drain holes that allow controlling an electrical current distribution relative to a surface of the substrate.
  • the high speed plate may comprise one, preferably a plurality of openings or jet holes that allow controlling an electrolyte flow distribution relative to a surface of the substrate.
  • the high speed plate may be a sandwich or compound of a portion with the drain holes and another portion with the jet holes.
  • the electrochemical deposition system or the module for chemical and/or electrolytic surface treatment for a metal deposition application is presented.
  • the use of the present electrochemical deposition system or module may allow reducing complexity and costs.
  • the metal deposition application is a copper deposition application. In an embodiment, the metal deposition application is a copper damascene and/or a copper dual damascene deposition application.
  • the manufacturing method comprises the following steps, not necessarily in this order:
  • the present manufacturing method for an electrochemical deposition system may allow reducing complexity and costs of the electrochemical deposition system.

  • the anode 11 is a solid body providing the function of an anode 11.
  • the anode 11 is preferably inert, but can also be a non-inert, reactive or active anode.
  • the anode enclosure 12 is a housing, which receives the anode 11 and extends around the anode 11.
  • the anode enclosure 12 is a cup-shaped container surrounding the anode 11 by sidewalls, a bottom wall and an opening on top of the container opposite to the bottom wall.

  • the anode enclosure 12 comprises a membrane 14.
  • the membrane 14 is a selective barrier, which allows some parts (small molecules, ions, other small particles, etc.) to pass through, but stops others.
  • the membrane 14 is a non-ionic specific bi-directional liquid permeable membrane. This means that the membrane 14 is here permeable for the electrolyte 13, but impermeable for gas bubbles.
  • the membrane 14 is made of a polypropylene.
  • the anode enclosure 12 and the membrane 14 form a flow divider, which directs gas formed during deposition away from the substrate 20 to be treated.
