A semiconductor structure having an improved pre-metal dielectric stack

摘要

A semiconductor structure includes a substrate, a dielectric layer disposed on the substrate, a layer of undoped silicate glass disposed on the dielectric layer, a layer of borophosphorous silicate glass on the layer of undoped silicate glass, and a planar dielectric layer disposed on the layer of borophosphorous silicate glass, the layers of undoped silicate glass, borophosphorous silicate glass, and planar dielectric together forming a pre-metal dielectric stack. The planar dielectric may include plasma-enhanced tetraethyl orthosilicate.
