Method of forming a fluoro-organosilicate layer on a substrate

摘要

A method of forming an integrated circuit using a fluoro-organosilicate layer is disclosed. The fluoro-organosilicate layer is formed by applying an electric field to a gas mixture comprising a fluoro-organosilane compound and an oxidizing gas. The fluoro-organosilicate layer is compatible with integrated circuit fabrication processes. In one integrated circuit fabrication process, the fluoro-organosilicate layer is used as a hardmask. In another integrated circuit fabrication process, the fluoro-organosilicate layer is incorporated into a damascene structure. <IMAGE>
