Ϊ246190 玖、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明概言之係關於一種半導體裝置及其製造方法。更 特定言之,本發明係關於-種以形成於-非晶形金屬玻璃 障壁層上的銅冶金為特徵的半導體裝置,及其製造方法。 【先前技術】 為提供更高速度的半㈣裝置,在此料術中使用低電 阻率導電材料及具有低k值(亦即介電常數約小於4)之絕緣 體已變為必要。舉例而言,目前銅正成為精選導電材料, 原因在於其具有比銘更低的電阻率及更佳的電遷移電阻。 此外,另已研究若干介電常數(k<4)的絕緣材料作為二氧化 矽或接雜二氧化料替代材料,例如BPSG。舉例而言,美國 專利第5,563,H)5號中曾闡釋一介電常數為35_37的氣接雜 碎玻璃卿)。„,已開發出具有—甚至更低介電常數 (例如約為2.7)的有機材料用作絕賴。可參閱(例如)美 利第5,965,679號。 寻 對於銅冶金,通常使用鑲嵌製程,其中於整個 的絕緣體表面上沈積銅以填充開口,亦即溝槽及通孔 後:如使用化學機㈣光實施平面化。當藉由電鍍: ,在沈積前先設置一電鍍基材或種晶層,及其它:争 南炫點金屬或高溶點氮化金屬,以改“著性並 =緣键内。由於需降低該等障壁層之厚度以滿二 此銅經由孩等障壁層擴散入低k值絕緣體便成 一個問題。 冬奴從成為 87077 1246190 特足而耳’對於線加工後端之溫度(亦即低於45(rc),銅 熱擴散入氧化物或有機絕緣體並不明顯。然而,當存在一 電場及水分時’鋼原子可首先於陽極處被化學離子化,然 後銅正離子可穿過低k值絕緣體快速移動至陰極(所謂電化 學遷移),從而引起可靠性問題。進一步,在高溫時自有機 絕緣體(例如闡釋於美國專利第5,965,679號中的彼等有機絕 緣體)釋放出的苯可靜電吸引銅正離子。由於傳統障壁層之 多晶體性質’因此該等障壁層始終具有某些晶體缺陷,例 如晶格缺陷、晶粒間界、及分離。彼等缺陷,尤其係晶粒 間界’可成為銅電化學遷移的一快速擴散路徑。銅經由傳 統障壁層擴散入低k值絕緣體可導致電子泄漏增加、介電常 數增大及與時間相關的介電性能過早失效。 因此’需要一種用於具有低k值絕緣體之銅鑲嵌結構的改 良障壁層,及一種製作該等結構的伴隨方法。 【發明内容】 在此背景下,本發明介紹一障壁層,該障壁層包含一與 銅導笔層及低k值有機絕緣體一起使用的非晶形金屬玻璃 。一般而言,該障壁層用作防止銅擴散入低k值有機絕緣體 的主要屏障。此外,在使用中,障壁層較薄,此允許於線 冶金之後端中有利地利用銅之低電阻率特性。當銅藉由電 鐘沈積於一開口時,障壁層之非晶形性質既可保證形成一 連續且高度網紋化的銅種晶層,亦可保證銅令人滿音地附 著至低k值有機絕緣體。 本發明提供一種包含位於一絕緣體中一開口内的導電層 87077 1246190 的半導體裝置,其中該導電層包含銅,且該絕緣體包含一 低k值有機材料,進一步,其中該導電層形成於一包含非晶 形金屬玻璃的障壁層上。 進一步,本發明提供—種包含位於一絕緣體中一開口内 的導電層的半導體裝置;其中該導電層包含銅;其中該絕 緣體包含寡聚物、未固化聚合物或固化聚合物,該類聚合 物包含一個或多個含有兩個或更多個環戊二婦酮基的多官 邊基化合物與至少一個含有兩個或更多個芳香乙炔基的多 έ &基化合物的反應物,其中該等多官能基化合物至少之 含有二個或更多個選自由乙炔基與環戊二婦酮基組成之 秩群的基團;及一障壁層沈積於導電層與絕緣體之間,該 障壁層包含含有約69%至約75%釦的非晶形鈕-鋁。非晶形鈕 口至具有理想的阻障特性,例如結構均勻性及不存在晶

Ta、TaN、丁1、丁出、WN、MoN、WSiN、WSi、Nb、NbN、 Cr、CrN、TaC、TaCe02、TaSiN、TiSiN等。亦應瞭解,具 有結構均勻性及無晶體缺陷的其它非晶形金屬玻璃(例如 Zr-基(例如ZrCuAl)及Pd_基(例如pdCuSi)金屬玻璃)亦適用 於障壁層應用。因此,上述本發明實施例意欲作為闡釋性 而非限定性實施例。可作出各種改變,其並未背離如下文 申w專利範圍所界定的本發明之主旨及範轉。 【圖式簡單說明】 圖1及圖2為顯示本發明半導體裝置之剖面示意圖。 【圖式代表符號說明】 87077 -11 - 結構 半導體基板 絕緣體 開口 障壁層 非晶形妲-鋁層 氮化鈦層 备層 導電層 氮化姮層 -12 -
