摘要 |
The present invention provides a method of improving the adhesion of a copper layer to a barrier layer on a substrate. After deposition of a barrier layer, such as TiN, an amorphous silicon layer is deposited by striking a plasma over the substrate using a silicon source gas, such as silane, and an inert gas, such as argon (Ar). A Cu layer is deposited on the amorphous silicon. In another aspect of the invention, a TiSiN layer is deposited using a silicon source gas, such as silane, and a titanium source gas, such as TDMAT, during the deposition of the TiN barrier layer.
