    • Method and apparatus are provided for determining a warpage of a wafer (14) for providing a minimum clamping voltage to an electrostatic chuck (ESC) when the wafer is subsequently processed thereon. The apparatus includes an electrostatic chuck (12, 120) and a control arrangement (16, 18, 20). The electrostatic chuck includes a clamping surface (13, 130) for clamping a wafer thereto by a clamping force that is dependent on a clamping voltage applied to the electrostatic chuck. The control arrangement is used to detect an inherent warpage in the wafer prior to a processing of that wafer, and determine a minimum clamping voltage from the measured warpage that is to be applied to the electrostatic chuck during a subsequent processing of the wafer. The minimum clamping voltage has a value for each wafer that securely clamps the wafer to the clamping surface and avoids excessive warpage and backside abrasion of the wafer. The control arrangement includes a suitable wafer warpage measuring tool (20, 50, 52, 54) such as, for example, a capacitance warpage measuring tool (50, 52, 54) or a optical warpage measuring tool (20) that measures the inherent warpage of a wafer, and an electrostatic chuck software control (18). The electrostatic chuck software control uses the measured warpages to determine and store data of a minimum clamping voltages and an associated wafer identification for each wafer for use in subsequently processing each wafer.
    • 提供了用于确定晶片(14)的翘曲的方法和装置,用于当晶片随后在其上处理时,向静电卡盘(ESC)提供最小钳位电压。 该装置包括静电吸盘(12,120)和控制装置(16,18,20)。 静电卡盘包括用于通过取决于施加到静电卡盘的夹紧电压的夹紧力将晶片夹紧到其上的夹紧表面(13,130)。 控制装置用于在该晶片的处理之前检测晶片中的固有翘曲,并且在随后的晶片处理期间从测量的翘曲确定最小钳位电压。 每个晶片的最小钳位电压具有将晶片牢固地夹持在夹紧表面上并避免晶片过度翘曲和背面磨损的值。 控制装置包括合适的晶片翘曲测量工具(20,50,52,54),例如电容翘曲测量工具(50,52,54)或光学翘曲测量工具(20),其测量固有的 晶片的翘曲和静电卡盘软件控制(18)。 静电卡盘软件控制使用测量的扭曲来确定和存储每个晶片的最小钳位电压和相关晶片标识的数据,以用于随后处理每个晶片。

    • A multilayer interconnect structure for a semiconductor integrated circuit comprising a base layer of titanium, a second layer of titanium nitride, a third layer of an aluminum alloy and a top layer of titanium nitride. All of the layers contained within the multilayer interconnect structure are deposited by in-situ deposition in an ultra-high vacuum deposition system. The different layers deposited in the deposition system are conducted consecutively without a disruption to the vacuum. Although each layer in the multilayer interconnect structure are deposited within the integrated ultra-high vacuum deposition system, with multiple deposition chambers, the deposition of the different layers is conducted at different temperatures. The time to the electromigration failure of the multilayer interconnect structure, caused by the electromigration of the aluminum alloy, is greatly increased by depositing the aluminum alloy layer at a temperature in excess of 300.degree. C. and preferably between 350.degree. C. and 550.degree. C. The titanium layer and the adjacent titanium nitride layer below the aluminum alloy layer provide the interconnect structure with low resistivity and prevent alloy spiking of the base substrate. As a result, a multilayer interconnect structure provided that has improved electromigration reliability and a low resistance, thereby enabling more dense applications within an integrated circuit.
    • 一种用于半导体集成电路的多层互连结构,包括钛基底层,第二氮化钛层,第三层铝合金和顶层氮化钛。 包含在多层互连结构内的所有层通过原位沉积沉积在超高真空沉积系统中。 沉积在沉积系统中的不同层连续进行,而不会破坏真空。 尽管多层互连结构中的每个层都沉积在具有多个沉积室的集成超高真空沉积系统内,但不同层的沉积在不同的温度下进行。 通过在超过300℃,优选350℃至550℃的温度下沉积铝合金层,由铝合金的电迁移引起的多层互连结构的电迁移故障的时间大大增加。 C.在铝合金层下面的钛层和相邻的氮化钛层提供具有低电阻率的互连结构并防止基底衬底的合金尖峰。 结果,提供了具有改善的电迁移可靠性和低电阻的多层互连结构,从而使集成电路内的应用更加密集。
