    • An improved dual damascene process for forming metal interconnects comprising the steps of providing a semiconductor substrate that has a conductive layer, a first dielectric layer and a first mask layer already formed thereon. The first dielectric layer is made from a low-k dielectric material. A first silicon oxynitride (SiON) layer is formed over the first mask layer. Next, the first silicon oxynitride layer is patterned, and then the first mask layer is etched using the first silicon oxynitride as a mask. Subsequently, a second dielectric layer and a second mask layer are formed over the first silicon oxynitride. The second dielectric layer can be made from a low-k dielectric material. Next, a second silicon oxynitride layer is formed over the second mask layer. Thereafter, the second silicon oxynitride layer is patterned, and then the second mask layer is etched using the second silicon oxynitride layer as a mask. Subsequently, using the second mask layer as a mask, the second dielectric layer is etched to form a metal wire opening. Etching continues down the metal wire opening to form a via opening in the first dielectric layer that exposes the conductive layer. Finally, metal is deposited into the metal wire opening and the via opening to form the dual damascene structure of this invention.

    • A method for manufacturing a via structure comprising the steps of providing a semiconductor substrate, and then forming conductive line and dielectric layer over the substrate. Next, a photolithographic and a first etching operation are conducted so that an opening in the dielectric layer exposing the conductive line surface is formed. The first etching operation uses several etchants including fluorobutane, which has the highest concentration. Since there is a re-entrance structure at the bottom of the opening, a second etching operation is performed. In the second etching operation, a portion of the conductive line is etched for a fixed time interval to control the degree of etching. Consequently, a slanting surface is formed at the bottom of the opening and the re-entrance structure is eliminated. With a planarized bottom, step coverage of subsequently deposited material is increased.
    • 一种用于制造通孔结构的方法,包括以下步骤:提供半导体衬底,然后在衬底上形成导电线和电介质层。 接下来,进行光刻和第一蚀刻操作,从而形成暴露导电线表面的电介质层中的开口。 第一蚀刻操作使用多种蚀刻剂,包括具有最高浓度的氟代丁烷。 由于在开口的底部存在再入口结构,因此进行第二蚀刻操作。 在第二蚀刻操作中,导电线的一部分被蚀刻固定的时间间隔以控制蚀刻程度。 因此,在开口的底部形成倾斜表面,并且消除了再入口结构。 在平坦化的底部,随后沉积材料的阶梯覆盖率增加。

    • A self-aligned via process to prevent the via poisoning includes forming a hydrogen silsesquioxane layer on the substrate and over a pre-formed metal layer, forming an etching stop layer on the hydrogen silsesquioxane layer, forming an oxide layer on the etching stop layer, and then proceeding with a two-step etching process to form a via. The two-step etching process first patterns the oxide layer using a patterned photoresist layer as a mask, and then patterns the etching stop layer together with the hydrogen silsesquioxane layer using the patterned oxide layer as a mask. Because the etching stop layer prevents the hydrogen silsesquioxane layer from reacting with the oxygen plasma during the photoresist layer removal process, via poisoning is eliminated.
    • 用于防止通路中毒的自对准通孔工艺包括在基板上和预成型的金属层上形成氢倍半硅氧烷层,在氢倍半硅氧烷层上形成蚀刻停止层,在蚀刻停止层上形成氧化物层, 然后进行两步蚀刻工艺以形成通孔。 两步蚀刻工艺首先使用图案化的光致抗蚀剂层作为掩模对氧化物层进行图案化,然后使用图案化氧化物层作为掩模,将蚀刻停止层与氢倍半硅氧烷层一起图案化。 因为蚀刻停止层防止在光致抗蚀剂层去除过程中氢倍半硅氧烷层与氧等离子体反应,消除了中毒。

    • An integrated circuit device having both an array of logic circuits and an array of embedded DRAM circuits is provided using a process that avoids some of the most significant processing challenges for embedded DRAM integration. Transfer FETs and wiring lines are provided for the embedded DRAM circuits and FETs are provided for the logic portions of the device in an initial phase of the process. The gate electrodes and source/drain regions of the logic FETs are subjected to a salicide process at this initial phase and a thick planarized oxide layer is provided over both the embedded DRAM regions and the logic circuit regions. Capacitors and logic interconnects are next formed using common etching, titanium nitride deposition and tungsten deposition steps. Contact vias are formed to expose each of the source drain regions of the DRAM transfer FETs and to expose select conductors within the logic circuits. A titanium nitride layer is deposited over the device and within the various contact vias through the planarized oxide layer. A capacitor dielectric layer is provided over the device and then the capacitor dielectric layer is selectively removed from at least the contact vias that become bit line contacts and logic interconnects. A layer of tungsten is deposited and patterned to provide upper capacitor electrodes and to complete the bit line contacts and logic interconnects. This first level tungsten layer also can provide bit line wiring. The 1/2 V.sub.cc potential for the upper capacitor electrodes can be provided to the circuit using a level of interconnect wiring also used by the logic circuits.

    • A method of making vias in a semiconductor IC device having adequate contact to the surface of the interconnects and without inadequate landing is disclosed. The method has interconnects formed in a metal layer on the substrate of the IC device, and a first dielectric layer is formed covering the surface of the interconnects. An etch-stopping layer is then formed on top of the first dielectric layer, followed by the formation of a second dielectric layer on top of the etch-stopping layer. A photoresist layer then covers the second dielectric layer and reveals the surface regions of the second dielectric layer designated for the formation of the vias. A main etching procedure is then performed to etch into the second dielectric layer down to the surface of the etch-stopping layer, thereby forming the first section of the vias. An over-etching procedure is then implemented to strip off the etch-stopping layer and further etches into the first dielectric layer and the etching is then stopped when the surface of the interconnects are revealed to conclude the formation of the vias.
