    • A multi-step electrochemical method for forming a copper metallurgy on an integrated circuit which has high aspect ratio contact/via openings is described. The method is designed to give good coverage and gap filling capability as well as high production throughput by depositing the copper in two stages with an optional dwell period between the stages. The process utilizes a copper plating electrolyte which contains an added brighteners and levelers. A first copper layer is plated at a low current density which provides good coverage resulting from a high throwing power. The high aspect ratio openings are covered with a substantial thickness of a uniform, high quality copper coating. During plating, the concentration of brightener becomes depleted in the base region of high aspect ratio contacts or vias. Optionally, the brightener is replenished in these regions during a brief dwell period wherein the plating current is stopped. Next, a high current density is applied whereby the openings are filled and additional copper is deposited over them at a high deposition rate. A benefit of the high current density deposition is that depletion of leveler chemical in the openings enhances the growth rate of copper at the base of the openings thereby favoring growth from bottom up. This avoids the formation of voids in the openings. The greatest throughput benefits are realized, by way of the high current density step, when the process is applied to the formation of a dual damascene metallurgy.
    • 描述了在具有高纵横比接触/通孔开口的集成电路上形成铜冶金的多步电化学方法。 该方法设计为通过在两个阶段之间以可选的停留时间两段沉积铜来提供良好的覆盖和间隙填充能力以及高的生产量。 该方法使用含有添加的增白剂和矫光剂的镀铜电解质。 第一铜层以低电流密度电镀,由高投掷功率提供良好的覆盖。 高长宽比的开口用相当厚度的均匀的高质量铜涂层覆盖。 在电镀期间,增亮剂的浓度在高纵横比触点或通孔的基极区域中耗尽。 任选地,在电镀电流停止的短暂停留期间,增白剂在这些区域中补充。 接下来,施加高电流密度,由此填充开口并且以高沉积速率在其上沉积附加的铜。 高电流密度沉积的益处在于开口中矫正剂化学品的消耗增加了开口底部的铜的生长速率,从而有利于从下到上生长。 这避免了在开口中形成空隙。 通过高电流密度步骤,当该方法应用于双镶嵌冶金的形成时,实现了最大的生产效率。

    • A novel and improved method of fabricating an integrated circuit, in which special copper films are formed by a combination of physical vapor deposition (PVD), chemical mechanical polish (CMP) and electrochemical copper deposition (ECD) techniques. The methods of the present invention make efficient use of several process steps resulting in less processing time, lower costs and higher device reliability. By these techniques, high aspect ratio trenches can be filled with copper without the problem of dishing. A special, selective electrochemical deposition (ECD) of copper metal is utilized taking place only on the seed layer in the trench. This auto-plating or “plate-up” occurs only in the trench and provides good sealing around the trench perimeter and fine copper metal coverage of the trench for subsequent robust interconnects. The selective plating of copper provides a robust copper film that is easily removed by subsequent chemical mechanical polish (CMP) and tends to be more uniform and free of the usual defects associated with CMP films.
    • 一种新颖且改进的制造集成电路的方法,其中通过物理气相沉积(PVD),化学机械抛光(CMP)和电化学铜沉积(ECD)技术的组合形成特殊的铜膜。 本发明的方法有效地利用几个工艺步骤,导致更少的处理时间,更低的成本和更高的器件可靠性。 通过这些技术,可以用铜填充高纵横比沟槽,而不会出现凹陷的问题。 仅在沟槽中的种子层上使用​​铜金属的特殊的选择性电化学沉积(ECD)。 这种自动电镀或“平板化”仅发生在沟槽中,并且在沟槽周边和沟槽的细铜金属覆盖层周围提供良好的密封以用于随后的鲁棒互连。 铜的选择性电镀提供了坚固的铜膜,其易于通过后续的化学机械抛光(CMP)去除,并且趋向于更均匀并且没有与CMP膜相关的常见缺陷。
