Metal Cap Apparatus and Method

摘要

Presented herein is a method for electrolessly forming a metal cap in a via opening, comprising bringing a via into contact with metal solution, the via disposed in an opening in a substrate, and forming a metal cap in the opening and in contact with the via, the metal cap formed by an electroless chemical reaction. A metal solution may be applied to the via to form the metal cap. The metal solution may comprises at least cobalt and the cap may comprise at least cobalt, and may optionally further comprise tungsten, and wherein the forming the cap comprises forming the cap to further comprise at least tungsten. The metal solution may further comprise at least hypophosphite or dimethlyaminoborane.
