摘要： A method for forming uniform ultrathin silicide features in the fabrication of an integrated circuit is described. A metal layer is deposited over the surface of a silicon semiconductor substrate. An array of heated metallic tips contact the metal layer whereby the metal layer is transformed to a metal silicide where it is contacted by the metallic tips and wherein the metal layer not contacted by the metallic tips is unreacted. The unreacted metal layer is removed leaving the metal silicide as uniform ultrathin silicide features. Alternatively, a metal acetate layer is spin-coated over the surface of a silicon semiconductor substrate. An array of heated metallic tips contacts the metal acetate layer whereby the metal acetate layer is transformed to a metal silicide where the metallic tips contact the metal acetate layer and wherein the metal acetate slayer not contacted by the metallic tips is unreacted. Or the metal acetate layer is heat treated at localized regions using a multi-array of tips aligned in a specific layout. Or the metal acetate layer is contacted by heated metallic tips under vacuum so that the metal does not oxidize. The unreacted metal acetate layer is removed leaving the metal silicide as the uniform ultrathin silicide features.

摘要： This invention relates to the fabrication of integrated circuit devices and more particularly to a method for minimizing the localized mechanical stress problems that can occur when silicided polysilicon gates are used to fabricate narrow channel CMOS devices. The invention addresses the avoidance of typical stress-induced problems in polysilicon gates, such as non-uniform silicide (including bowing, thinning edges, etc.) and voids, which are becoming increasingly worse as gate lengths continue to be reduced. The key to this invention is to spread the highly detrimental mechanical stresses, in narrow silicided gates, over a larger vertical surface area. This is accomplished by using a thin/thick double polysilicon stack for the gate, whereby, the lower thin polysilicon gate layer is not silicided and the upper thick polysilicon layer is subsequently silicided. An insulating layer is used to prevent silicidation of the lower thin polysilicon gate, during silicidation of active source-drain regions. The same insulating layer is also used to avoid another cause of mechanical stress, by protecting the surface grain boundaries of the lower thin polysilicon gate layer from being stuffed with polymer during the dry etching used for spacer formation. The tall stacked gate structure allows the silicide-induced stresses to be more safely located farther away from the active devices.
摘要翻译：本发明涉及集成电路器件的制造，更具体地说，涉及一种使硅化多晶硅栅极用于制造窄沟道CMOS器件时可能出现的局部机械应力问题最小化的方法。本发明解决了避免多晶硅栅极中的典型的应力引起的问题，例如不均匀的硅化物（包括弯曲，变薄边缘等）和空隙，随着栅极长度的不断减小，这些问题变得越来越严重。本发明的关键是在狭窄的硅化物栅极中，在较大的垂直表面积上传播高度有害的机械应力。这是通过使用用于栅极的薄/厚双重多晶硅堆叠实现的，由此，下部薄多晶硅栅极层不被硅化，并且随后硅化上部厚多晶硅层。在有源源极 - 漏极区域的硅化期间，使用绝缘层来防止下部薄多晶硅栅极的硅化。同样的绝缘层也用于通过在用于间隔物形成的干蚀刻期间保护下部薄多晶硅栅极层的表面晶界不被聚合物填充而避免机械应力的另一个原因。高堆叠栅极结构允许硅化物引起的应力更安全地远离有源器件。

摘要： A method to form a "mushroom shaped" gate structure 18 22 44A 70 that increases the top gate silicide contact area and improves the salicide process, especially TiSi.sub.2 salicide. The novel upper gate extensions 44A increase the top gate surface area so that the silicide gate contacts 70 will have a low resistivity. The invention includes forming a gate stack 18 22 26 comprised of a gate oxide layer 18, a center gate portion 22 and a hard mask 26. Next, we form a first insulating layer 40 over the gate stack 22 26 18. The hard mask 26 and a first thickness of the first insulating layer 40 are removed to expose sidewalls of the center gate portion 22. A second conductive layer 44 is formed over the first insulating layer 46 and the center gate portion 22. The second conductive layer 44 is etched to form critical rounded upper gate extensions 44A on the sidewalls of the center gate portion 22. Lower rectangular sidewall spacers 52 are formed on the sidewalls of the center gate portion 22. Source/drain regions 54 are formed. A salicide process forms silicide source/drain contacts 64 and forms extra large silicided gate contacts 70 to reduce parasitic resistance.

摘要： In one embodiment, the present invention recites forming a number of first openings in a first substrate. The present embodiment then recites forming a copper region within each first openings during a damascene process, wherein each copper region has a top surface. The present embodiment then disposes a dielectric layer proximate to the top surface of each of the first copper regions during the damascene process. After depositing a second substrate over the dielectric, a number of second openings in a second substrate are made. Next, a number of second copper regions are formed in the second openings, during the damascene process. The dielectric region is thus disposed between the first copper regions and the second copper regions. In so doing, the dielectric region forms a dielectric barrier between the first copper regions and the second copper regions such that a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor is formed during a damascene process.

摘要： A method for fabricating an increased capacitance metal-insulator-metal capacitor using an integrated copper dual damascene process is described. A first dual damascene opening and a pair of second dual damascene openings are provided in a first dielectric layer overlying a substrate. The first and second dual damascene openings are filled with a first copper layer wherein the filled first dual damascene opening forms a logic interconnect and the filled pair of second dual damascene openings forms a pair of capacitor electrodes. The first dielectric layer is etched away between the pair of capacitor electrodes leaving a space between the pair of capacitor electrodes. The space between the pair of capacitor electrodes is filled with a high dielectric constant material to complete fabrication of a vertical MIM capacitor in the fabrication of an integrated circuit device. The fabrication of the capacitor can begin at any metal layer. The process of the invention can be extended to form a parallel capacitor, a series capacitor, stacked capacitors, and so on.

摘要： Methods are disclosed for forming ultra-thin (.about.300-.ANG.), uniform and stoichiometric C54-titanium silicide with a Ti film thickness of 200-300 .ANG. using pulsed laser salicidation. The invention achieves this by preferably step-scanning from die to die, across the wafer using laser pulses with an optical fluence (laser energy) ranging from 0.1 to 0.2 J/cm.sup.2 for approximately 23 nanoseconds per pulse. The source of radiation can be a XeCl or KrF excimer laser, or one in which the laser's wavelength is chosen such that the laser energy is absorbed the most by the refractory metal, i.e. titanium (Ti), cobalt (Co) or nickel (Ni). The laser beam size is typically die-size or can be fine tuned to 1 to 100 .mu.m and can be optimized to reduce the intensity variation across the laser spot diameter. At each position between 1 to 100 pulses can be emitted on the wafer. Localized heating is possible with the ability to establish the ambient temperature at or below 200.degree. C.
