<p>Provided herein is a method of depositing alpha-tantalum film on a semiconductor wafer by depositing a tantalum nitride film on a wafer; and then depositing a tantalum film over the tantalum nitride film using wafer bias. The tantalum film as deposited is in alpha phase. Also provided is a method of depositing Cu barrier and seed layer on a semiconductor wafer, comprising the steps of depositing a tantalum nitride layer on a wafer; depositing a tantalum layer over the tantalum nitride layer using wafer bias, wherein the resulting tantalum barrier layer is in alpha phase; and then depositing Cu seed layer over the alpha-tantalum barrier layer. Further provided is a method of depositing alpha-tantalum film/layer using two-chamber process, wherein the tantalum nitride and subsequently deposited tantalum films/layers can be deposited in two separate chambers, such as IMP or SIP chambers. Still further provided is a method of depositing alpha-tantalum film by depositing PVD tantalum film on CVD films.</p> |
