Nitride layer formation includes a method where a material is electrodeposited on a substrate and converted, at least in part, to a layer comprising nitrogen and the electrodeposited material. The electrodepositing may occur substantially selective on a conductive portion of the substrate. Also, the converting may comprise exposing the electrodeposited material to a nitrogen-comprising plasma. Chromium nitride and chromium oxynitride are examples of nitrogen-comprising materials. Copper or gold wiring of an integrated circuit are examples of a substrate. The chromium may be converted to a chromium-nitride-comprising diffusion barrier using a nitrogen-comprising plasma. |
