Method of depositing low dielectric constant carbon doped silicon oxide

摘要

A method of forming a carbon-doped silicon oxide layer is disclosed. The carbon-doped silicon oxide layer is formed by applying an electric field to a gas mixture comprising an organosilane compound and an oxidizing gas. The carbon-doped silicon oxide layer is compatible with integrated circuit fabrication processes. In one integrated circuit fabrication process, the carbon-doped silicon oxide layer is used as an intermetal dielectric layer. In another integrated circuit fabrication process, the carbon-doped silicon oxide layer is incorporated into a damascene structure.
