This planarization process has been successfully used to fabricate advanced double-poly double-metal circuits on 0.8- mu m CMOS technologies. E-test structures indicate low via resistance (0.15 Omega /via) and the absence of any metal opens or shorts.

Low-resistivity silicon substrates with narrow microstrip lines exhibit large losses and moderate-to-excessive dispersion, which may render them undesirable for use in large-area, high-speed, VLSI circuits. Alternatively, high-resistivity silicon substrates were found to have significantly lower attenuation and nearly linear phase characteristics for 5- mu m linewidths over the 10-GHz frequency range considered. However, for 1- mu m linewidths the loss and dispersion characteristics for both high- and low-resistivity substrate microstrip lines may be problematic when used in digital and analog environments where maintaining waveform integrity is of key concern. The data presented should assist in the design and layout of high-speed, large VLSI chips which use small geometry interconnects.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127354986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effect of process parameters of selective CVD W, especially when deposited by SiH/sub 4/-based chemistry, on contact resistance to Al-Cu-Si is evaluated for the first time. It is observed that out of all process parameters the deposition temperature affects the contact resistance the most. As the deposition temperature increases, the contact resistance of the stack W/Al-Cu-Si decreases. Specific resistivities, as low as 3-5*10/sup -9/ Omega cm/sup 2/, are realized at turret temperatures of 550 degrees C. On the other hand, the contact resistances are relatively unaffected by partial pressures of SiH/sub 4/ or WF/sub 6/. As a result the growth rates which are dependent on partial pressures do not control the contact resistances. Phosphoric-chromic and buffered hydrofluoric acid cleanings combined with higher deposition temperatures yield relatively superior contact resistance compared to other cleaning techniques.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"196 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124902497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, for the AlSi alloy, spot ablation occurs which is characterized by the removal of metal. This is not the case for the AlSiCu and the AlSiTi alloys. The best morphology is obtained for the AlSiTi alloy with large areas completely free of ablation and pitting. These results indicate that reliable planarization over large device areas can be achieved using the AlSiTi alloy.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116076212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Advanced ULSI circuits require minimum features <or=1.0 mu m to maximize packing density. In addition, metal line pinches must be approximately 2.0 mu m and vias <or=1.0 mu m with straight walls. Thicker interlevel dielectrics for capacitance reduction mean that the aspect ratio (height/width) of vias must be approximately 1.0. These high aspect ratios greatly reduce the step coverage of sputtered metal causing two potential problems: (1) increased via resistance and (2) sources of reliability failure. To study these issues, the authors used a double-level metal vehicle with a range of metal 1 pitch of 1.75-3.0 mu m, a metal 2 pitch range of 3.0-4.5 mu m, and a range of via sizes from (0.75 mu m)/sup 2/ to (1.5 mu m)/sup 2/. The via chains using W to achieve an approximately 100% via fill had excellent results. All chains were continuous and the average resistance/via was 0.33, 0.19 and 0.13 Omega for the (0.75 mu m)/sup 2/, (1.0 mu m)/sup 2/, and (1.25 mu m)/sup 2/ via chains, respectively. The standard deviation across a wafer in each case was less than 2%. When the Wfills were 75% on the smallest vias the step coverage from 325 degrees C sputtered AlCu was poor; causing some opens and an increase in the mean and standard deviation of the Omega /via. On larger vias with same percent fill, the chains were continuous, but the resistance was greater than for the 100% fills. This is an issue when the vias have different depths due to underlying topography.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122622964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Melting was accomplished by irradiating Si wafers in a rapid thermal anneal system. Three types of barrier were studied: TiN, W:Ti, and a bilayer of W:Ti/TiN. Junction leakage measurements indicated that the W:Ti/TiN bilayer was superior to the other two and that it withstood temperatures at least 60 degrees C higher than the Al melting temperature for one second or less. Rutherford backscattering, X-ray diffraction, and etchback experiments were performed to determine the extent of interaction between the various layers after the melt. The authors found that for the W:Ti barrier, upon melting of Al, W reacted readily with Al and Si, forming the ternary alloy, W(Al,Si)/sub 2/, and possibly other phases including Co as a constituent. TiN on the other hand effectively prevented the reaction of Al and W with Co and Si.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130410658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even for EM-induced resistance rises of up to 270% in the metal leads, the vias remained stable with via resistance rises of less than 20%.

The authors have developed a transient mathematical model incorporating simultaneous Knudsen diffusion and the competing heterogeneous reactions in rectangular trenches to predict quantitatively step coverage in tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) PECVD. The model reveals that deposition uniformity, and hence the step coverage, is controlled by two dimensionless groups. The first group represents a ratio of a characteristic deposition rate to a characteristic atomic oxygen diffusion rate. The second group represents the ratio of a characteristic wall recombination, or quench rate to diffusion rate. These groups can be used as a guideline to determine how process conditions should be adjusted to increase deposition rate without degrading step coverage. The model correctly predicts that high step coverages are obtained with low RF power, low pressure, and low wafer temperature.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126308689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
