Planarization layers of amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a-C:H) have been deposited from 1-butene and 1,3-butadiene. Oxide and aluminum features 1- mu m deep by 2- mu m wide have been planarized to less than 50 nm in height using 1.2- mu m-thick a-C:H films. Silicon dioxide layers have been deposited using a mixture of N/sub 2/O, Ar, and 5% SiH/sub 4/ diluted in N/sub 2/. Using films nominally 1.5 mu m thick, 800-nm-deep topography can be reduced to less than 50 nm for lines as wide as 3 mu m. The planarizing SiO/sub 2/ layers have been characterized using ellipsometry and Auger electron spectroscopy and found to have a refractive index and stoichiometry comparable to those of thermally grown gate oxide. The time necessary for planarization and the final film thickness are dependent upon the aspect ratio of the features to be planarized and the deposition conditions.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"45 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":"115102228","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 scheme combines selective epitaxial Si growth (SEG) and silicide formation to form selective silicide contact plugs. Silicide plugs can be implemented in both n/sup +/ and p/sup +/ contacts with low contact resistance, high temperature stability, and good planarity. TEM and electrical measurements show that the above approach can be used to fill contact depth up to 1 mu m and contact aspect ratio up to 1. The lack of a silicidation stop and the incomplete epi-Si consumption are two issues to be solved. For deeper contacts or contacts with higher aspect ratio, postsilicidation plug implantations become necessary to guarantee low contact resistances.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"74 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":"121756540","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}

Both the conventional constant current stress and current ramping stress were applied. It was found that the electromigration resistance of the contact structure increases with the Ti thickness monotonically, although the rate of increase reduces drastically once the Ti thickness exceeds 400 AA. At a Ti thickness of 1000 AA, the mean time to failure is more than an order of magnitude longer than that of contacts without the titanium nitride barrier. There is an excellent correlation between the result derived from conventional constant current stress and that from the current ramping stress. The current ramp method, therefore, can be used as a relative reliability indicator for contact structures on wafer-level tests. Thermal stress data show that an adequate margin of thermal stability exists for contact structures at all Ti thicknesses (>or=200 AA). Accordingly, a process window for the Ti thickness in this technology can be defined depending on the requirement of electromigration resistance for contacts.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"51 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":"125661458","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 selective deposition of CVD tungsten has been extensively studied as a promising technique for filling contacts and vias in semiconductor devices. The immediate need to apply this technology to devices with submicron contacts and vias requires that consideration be given to defect density, probe yield, process yield, and manufacturability. In addition, process control reliability must also be addressed. The authors show the yield effect of selective tungsten deposition as compared to a standard process flow. The 256 K DRAM was chosen as the test vehicle for the study. The most strongly affected electrical parameters were the contact resistances. In some cases degradation was bad enough to cause continuity failure in the functional tests. Across-wafer uniformities and failure analysis results for the different processes are also reported.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"28 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":"128665421","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}

An analytical model for the fringing capacitance is described based on the work of C.-D. Yuan and T. Trick (IEEE Electron Device Lett. vol. EDL-3, p.391-3, 1982) that closely approximates the electric-field configuration at the edges of the line. The author extends this previous work by including in the model the effect of crossing wiring levels and adjacent lines. The model is based on the physics of electric field and therefore is not limited to a specific interconnect technology. It has been used to determine the extent of fringing in various configuration and the point at which adjacent lines modify the fringing capacitance. The equations in the model for the fringing capacitance are not complex and are well suited for interactive CAD applications. Comparison of the results of the analytical model to numerical simulations has shown good agreement over a broad range of dimensions, typically within 15% for separations to crossing levels and adjacent lines down to 1.0 mu m.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"12 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":"127317208","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}

An equation describing the spin-on film contour is presented. The parameters appearing in the equation can be used to predict planarization properties on any complex topography and with multiple spun-on coatings.

The authors have found that the Ti-Al layered structure can suppress stress-induced void formation in underlying Al conductors. The effect of the Ti-Al layered structure on the suppression of stress-induced voiding can be attributed to the formation of the intermetallic compound Al/sub 3/Ti, which prevents plastic deformation of the film. Electromigration results indicate that the capping layers of refractory metals and silicides such as Ti, W, WSi/sub 2/, and MoSi/sub 2/ improve the mean time to failure by 4-10 times compared with Al without capping.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"18 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":"121048810","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 test structure yields were correlated to device functional yields. This analysis was able to quantitatively determine the yield limiting parameters by order of significance. Pareto problem ranking analysis provides specific directions to allocate engineering resources in yield enhancement efforts without first performing extensive failure analysis or experiments, or using intuitive rationale. This method shortens the evaluation cycle for identifying specific problems and solutions by using the product itself to uncover subtle yield relationships in an ongoing manner. This gives a clear direction for yield enhancement. After evaluation of several test parameters, using various yield models, it was determined that the Stapper model provided the best mathematical fit for comparing parametric to functional yields.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":302853,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings., Sixth International IEEE VLSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference","volume":"1 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":"128579509","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}
