への形成を可能にする。2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, as ULSI becomes highly integrated, electrode wiring tends to become finer. Aluminum or aluminum-based alloys have often been used as electrode wiring materials, but as the line width of the wiring decreases, electromigration becomes severe and it becomes difficult to guarantee reliability. Therefore, high melting point metals such as molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W) are being tried as wiring materials in place of aluminum, but their resistance in bulk is more than twice that of aluminum, and even higher in thin films. Therefore, there is a need for materials that are resistant to electromigration and have low resistance. Therefore, it is conceivable to use copper (Cu) as a wiring material in place of aluminum. Copper has low resistance and is resistant to electromigration, allowing it to be formed into microscopic devices.

しまう。However, the reason why copper wiring has not been applied to devices so far is that Cu is oxidized at a temperature of about 200° C. in an atmosphere containing even a few percent of oxygen. That is, in the wafer process, CVD
Since the Cu film is exposed to an oxygen atmosphere at high temperature during steps such as forming an insulating film using a method and annealing, a problem has arisen in that the Cu film is oxidized. For example, when forming an SiO2 film as an insulating film by CVD after forming Cu wiring, the wafer is exposed to a substrate temperature of 300°C to 400°C in SiH4+N2O gas, for example. At this time, Cu is oxidized by oxygen contained in the reaction gas. In addition, when annealing is performed after forming Cu wiring, it is carried out at 400°C to 700°C by flowing N2 in a normal electric furnace, but Cu will be oxidized. Unlike Al, Cu does not form a stable oxide film on its surface, so when the surface reacts with oxygen, oxygen diffuses into the film and becomes copper oxide, causing a rapid increase in electrical resistance, making it unsuitable for practical use as wiring. It becomes.

法が要望されていた。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, even if such conventional technology is used, the structure may include SiO2 in the Cu wiring, or the silicon deposited on the Cu wiring may be heat-treated in an oxygen atmosphere. Therefore, Cu has many chances to react with oxygen, and oxidation of Cu cannot be completely prevented. Therefore, an effective method for preventing oxidation of Cu wiring has been desired.

Since titanium (Ti) in the copper-titanium alloy film has the effect of gettering oxygen, even if high-temperature heat treatment is performed, the oxygen in SiO2 combines with titanium and does not react with the internal copper film 14.

効果がある。Effects of the Invention In the present invention, copper-
By the presence of a titanium-based alloy film, oxygen (O)
It has the effect of suppressing the reaction between the insulating film containing copper and copper. That is, since the titanium in the copper-titanium alloy film getters oxygen, the oxygen in the insulating film combines with titanium and does not react with the copper inside even after high-temperature heat treatment. For this reason,
The present invention has the advantage that copper wiring can be put to practical use as wiring for VLSI.
