Abstract
Highly (111)-oriented texture and high wetting of Cu films on
CVD-TiN films are achieved by use of a (002)-oriented sputtered Ti
underlayer and an Ar sputter etch before Ti deposition. This process
enhances (111)-oriented crystallization of the amorphous CVD-TiN film.
As a result, 〈111〉 texture and wetting of Cu films are as same
as those of Cu on Ta films. Cu films with a damascene structure also
show a highly (111)-oriented texture
