Description
BACKGROUND

An integrated circuit is an interconnected ensemble of devices formed within a semiconductor material and within a dielectric material that overlies a surface of the semiconductor material. Devices that may be formed within the semiconductor include MOS transistors, bipolar transistors, diodes, and diffused resistors. Devices that may be formed within the dielectric include thin film resistors and capacitors. The devices are interconnected by conductor paths formed within the dielectric. Typically, two or more levels of conductor paths, with successive levels separated by a dielectric layer, are employed as interconnections. In current practice, copper and silicon oxide are typically used for, respectively, the conductor and the dielectric.


The deposits in a copper interconnect typically include a dielectric layer, a barrier layer, a seed layer, copper fill, and a copper cap. Conventional electrochemical deposition (ECD) for copper fill and cap is performed in the feature using an acid plating chemistry. Electrochemical deposition of copper has been found to be the most cost effective manner by which to deposit a copper metallization layer. In addition to being economically viable, such deposition techniques provide a substantially bottom up (e.g., non-conformal) copper fill that is mechanically and electrically suitable for interconnect structures.


Conventional ECD copper acid plating chemistry may include, for example, copper sulfate, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and organic additives (such as accelerators, suppressors, and levelers). The additives drive void-free, bottom-up fill in a feature through their adsorptive and desorptive properties and through competitive reactions, for example, by suppressing plating at the top and on the sidewalls of the feature, while enhancing plating at the bottom of the feature.


The steady downscaling of interconnect features presents new challenges, because the characteristic dimensions (such as feature width and aspect ratio) hinder and alter the reactivity characteristics of additives typically used. In that regard, sub-30 nm features used for copper interconnects have small enough volume and require such few copper atoms that, in a conventional ECD copper acid plating chemistry, the features become filled within the first few seconds of plating. This is a shorter time period than that required for the adsorption and desorption kinetics of the bath additives that drive traditional bottom-up filling.


Therefore, in small features (e.g., sub-30 nm features), a conventional ECD fill may result in a lower quality interconnect due to the presence of voids. As one example of a type of void formed using conventional ECD deposition, the opening of the feature may pinch off. Many other types of voids can also result from using the conventional ECD copper fill process in a small feature. Such voids and other intrinsic properties of a deposit formed using conventional ECD copper fill can increase the resistance of the interconnect, thereby slowing the device and deteriorating the reliability of the copper interconnect.


Therefore, there exists a need for methods of electrochemical deposition for filling sub-30 nm features from the bottom up, leaving a reduced number of void regions. Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to filling this and other needs.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to workpieces, such as semiconductor wafers, devices, or processing assemblies for processing workpieces, and methods of processing the same. The term workpiece, wafer, or semiconductor wafer means any flat media or article, including semiconductor wafers and other substrates or wafers, glass, mask, and optical or memory media, MEMS substrates, or any other workpiece having micro-electric, micro-mechanical, or microelectro-mechanical devices.


Processes described herein are to be used for metal or metal alloy deposition in features of workpieces, which include trenches and vias. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the process may be used in small features, for example, features having a feature diameter of less than 30 nm. However, it should be appreciated that the processes described herein are applicable to any feature size. The dimension sizes discussed in the present application are post-etch feature dimensions at the top opening of the feature. The processes described herein may be applied to various forms of metal and metal alloy deposition, for example, in Damascene applications.


It should be appreciated that the descriptive terms “micro-feature workpiece” and “workpiece” as used herein include all structures and layers that have been previously deposited and formed at a given point in the processing. Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to methods for void-free, bottom-up fill in small features. In accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure, a method includes providing a chemical-physical driving force to encourage void-free, bottom-up fill in small features. A suitable chemical-physical driving force may include increasing the halide ion concentration in the bath and applying a unique entry and early plating electric waveform at the beginning of the plating process.


In embodiments of the present disclosure, small features described herein may be sub-30 nm features, sub-20 nm features, features in the range of 10-30 nm, or features in the range of 5-30 nm.


The term “void-free fill” is defined in the art as a feature having a reduced void fill so as not to significantly increase the resistance of the interconnect or significantly affect yield or performance of the interconnect. Although features may include a population of voids, whether generated during plating or during later processing conditions, these voids are generally undetectable in a “void-free fill.” In that regard, the voids are undetectable when examined visually, for example, using an SEM image as seen in FIG. 3. Moreover, the voids are undetectable if the smaller feature achieves comparable performance values, for example, yield, resistance, and reliability values, when compared to a larger feature that has been determined to be acceptable in the industry for its performance achievements, for example, a 45 nm feature.


The plating bath may be an acid metal damascene plating bath, including, for example, metal ions (such as copper ions in the form of copper sulfate), an acid concentration (such as sulfuric acid) a halide concentration (such as a chloride ion concentration in the form of hydrochloric acid), and organic additives (such as accelerators, suppressors, and levelers). It should be appreciated, however, that the methods described herein may apply to other metals besides copper and other types of chemistries besides those having an acid concentration, such as sulfuric acid.


In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, the halide ion concentration in the plating bath is increased by the use of, for example, increased chloride ion, bromide ion, or iodide ion concentration, as well as other suitable halide ions, or combinations thereof.


As a non-limiting example of a suitable halide, increased chloride ion concentration may be used in the plating bath. Chloride concentration in a traditional plating bath is typically at a concentration of about 50 ppm. In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, the chloride concentration may be in the range of about 1.1 to about 5 times this typical concentration. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the chloride concentration may be about 3 times the typical chloride concentration in a traditional plating bath. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the chloride concentration may be in the range of about 120 to 150 ppm. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the chloride concentration may be in the range of about 55 ppm to about 250 ppm.


Plating baths in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure may further include optional organic additives, which may be present in various concentrations depending on the operational conditions of the plating baths. In that regard, because organic additives in conventional ECD copper acid plating chemistry (such as accelerators, suppressors, and levelers) are largely ineffective in plating chemistry for small features in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, some or all of these additives may not be needed, and therefore, may be removed from the plating bath. However, if larger features are being plated using the same chemistry bath as the smaller features, then these additives must be included in the plating bath to facilitate void-free plating in the larger features, as will be described in greater detail below.


The plating bath may also include complexing agents that are designed to facilitate copper deposition without requiring some or all of the organic additives. As a non-limiting example, a suitable copper complexing agent may include a chelator, such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). Other complexing agents known by those skilled in the art may also be employed.


In combination with the chemical effects of increased halide concentration in the plating bath, the use of an electric waveform adds a physical component to the chemistry plating bath. In that regard, the waveform adds kinetic energy in locations inside the feature that chemistry alone will not affect. Because the feature size is very small and approximately of the same scale or on the same order as the plating additive molecules, the plating chemistry does not behave as expected in larger features. Therefore, the use of a waveform physically manipulates the behavior of the molecules during plating. The waveform may be an electric current waveform or an electric potential waveform.


Although not wishing to be bound by theory, the waveform is believed by the inventors to decrease the time delays of the effectiveness of additives in a small feature. Because the additives are generally included for use in larger features and not particularly useful in smaller features, an increased halide concentration is believed to mitigate any negative effects of the additives in a small feature. For example, the increased halide concentration may mitigate the negative effects of a suppressor in the small feature, for which its activation time has been accelerated by the use of an electric waveform.


In accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure, a suitable current waveform includes a triggered hot entry and a ramped current, followed by a short time period (less than 5 seconds) of pulse plating. In the triggered hot entry, the current is an open circuit until the wafer touches the chemistry, thereby closing the circuit to initiate the start of the pre-set waveform.


Because the entire workpiece is not all wet at once, a ramping of current is used to maintain a constant current density in the workpiece during the wetting stage. The ramping of the current may be performed in one or more ways. Referring to the non-limiting example in FIG. 1, the ramping is a steady ramping. In this example, it takes about 150 msecs (from about 0 to about 150 msecs) for the entire workpiece to be immersed in the chemistry. Referring to the non-limiting example in FIG. 2, steady ramping occurs after a short delay and then is held constant. The length of the delay may be dependent on when the power supply is triggered. In this example, steady ramping occurs from about 0.15 to about 0.40 seconds, and then is held constant from about 0.40 seconds to about 0.85 seconds.


It should be appreciated that the ramping stage may be a linear continuous ramping, a non-linear continuous ramping, or a pulsed ramping. In accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure, the ramping may achieve a current level in the range of about 1 amp to about 15 amps. In accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure, the ramping may achieve a current level in the range of about 7 amps to about 15 amps. In accordance with another embodiment of the present disclosure, the ramping may achieve a current level in the range of about 18 amps to about 25 amps. In accordance with another embodiment of the present disclosure, the ramping may achieve a current level in the range of about 7 amps to about 25 amps.


In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, the ramping period may be less than 0.1 seconds, less than 0.2 seconds, less than 0.4 seconds or less than 1.0 second.


Although not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed by the inventors that after the ramping stage, a pulsed waveform can be used to account for the transient effects of current when the pulsing is off In that regard, it is believed that a pulsed waveform helps to control voltage overshoots that affect the chemistry near the wafer.


The pulsing stage is calculated based on the fill time, topography, and architecture of the features. The inventors found that pulsing is advantageous in reducing voids in very small features (e.g., sub-30 nm features). However, pulsing has a negative effect on larger features in that it tends to create a counter plating effect (for example, by driving additives away from the plating surface), which results in conformal deposition, as opposed to desired bottom-up (or non-conformal) fill (see, e.g., experimental results described in EXAMPLE 4 below). Conformal deposition is not desirable in larger features because of the tendency to create pinch-off. Therefore, the pulsing stage is limited to a time period in which the sub-30 nm features fill, ending before negative consequences are experienced in the larger features.


In accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure, the pulsing stage may extend for up to 2 seconds (2000 msecs). In accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure, the pulsing stage may extend for up to 0.5 seconds (500 msecs). In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, pulses may be in the range from about greater than 1 msec to about 100 msecs in length. In one embodiment, pulses may be in the range from about 5 msec to about 100 msecs in length. In one embodiment, pulses may be in the range from about 5 msec to about 50 msecs in length. In the illustrated embodiments of FIGS. 1 and 2, the pulses are about 10 msecs in length. (Of note, the pulsing scheme appears as a block from 0.85 to 3.1 seconds in FIG. 2 because of the limited resolution for the timescale shown.) A non-limiting example of a “long” pulsing scheme may include, for example, a pulsing period of 15 seconds, with pulses occurring about every 10 msecs. Pulses length can be as long as 4 seconds per pulse.


In one embodiment of the present disclosure, current “on” or “high” pulses may be in the range of about 1 to about 30 amps. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, current “on” or “high” pulses may be in the range of about 4.5 to about 30 amps. Current “off” or “low” pulses may be in the range of about 0 to about 20 amps, about 0 to about 10 amps, and about 0 to about 5 amps.


The duty cycle of the pulsing stage may be in the range of about 20% to about 70%, using a maximum duty cycle of 75%. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the duty cycle is about 50%.


The combination of increased halide ion concentration and a specific pattern of electric waveform is generally believed by those skilled in the art to be counterproductive in an electrochemical deposition process. In that regard, increased halide ion concentration is generally believed by those skilled in the art to accelerate electrochemical deposition in a small features, whereas an electric waveform is generally believed by those skilled in the art to suppress electrochemical deposition.


Although not wishing to be bound by theory, the inventors of the present application believe that the combination of the increased halide ion concentration and a specific pattern of electric waveform provides advantageous electrochemical deposition results because of the specific timing of activities in a small feature. In a non-limiting example, within about the first 100 msecs of plating in a small feature, the presence of halide ions causes deposition to be accelerated. During this time period, a suppressing additive present in the plating chemistry has likely not reached the inside the small feature, and therefore is not yet effective there. However, the suppressing additive may help suppress deposition outside the feature on the field.


As the small feature begins to fill during this time period, a waveform may be applied to slow down or suppress deposition. The waveform may have a period of ramping so as not to completely suppress the acceleration caused by the increased halide concentration, thereby allowing some deposition in the small feature.


Within about the second 100 msecs of plating in a small feature, a suppressing additive present in the plating chemistry may begin to take effect in the small feature. The waveform adds to the suppression effects to slow down deposition and reduce the likelihood of voids in the feature.


After about 1 second, an accelerating additive present in the plating chemistry begins to take effect. Therefore, pulse plating can be used to control the acceleration effects.


As described in the EXAMPLES that follow, void-free fill has been achieved on a test substrate in the Applied Materials CFD3LM plating chamber, and verified by SEM imaging. Sub-30 nm features on both internal and external wafers have been successfully filled and verified using post-CMP defect inspection.


EXAMPLE 1
Exemplary Waveform

An exemplary waveform is provided in FIG. 1 for the first 350 msecs of plating, showing current ramping at entry for 150 msecs, followed by 10 msec, 50% duty cycle pulses. In FIG. 1, about 0.2 seconds (200 msecs) of pulsing is shown; however, the pulsing scheme can continue for a longer duration. In one non-limiting example, the pulsing scheme may continue for 0.5 seconds (500 msecs).


EXAMPLE 2
Exemplary Waveform

Another exemplary waveform is provided in FIG. 2 for the first 4 secs of plating, showing current ramping beginning at 0.15 secs, when the wafer is fully submerged in the plating solution. The 10 msec pulses appear as a “block” from 0.85 to 3.1 secs in FIG. 2 because of the limiting resolution for the timescale shown. In FIG. 2, a little over 2 seconds (2000 msecs) of pulsing is shown.


EXAMPLE 3
SEM Image

Referring to FIG. 3, a cross-sectional SEM image showing void-free gap fill with 120 ppm chloride in the plating solution and the plating waveform of EXAMPLE 2 and FIG. 2.


EXAMPLE 4
Comparative Void Count Results

Referring to FIG. 4, comparative void count results are provided for three different substrates: Substrate A, a sub-20 nm feature; Substrate B, a sub-20 nm feature; and Substrate C, a 65 nm feature. Substrate A generally has smaller arrays for denser feature population. Substrate B also has small features, but much larger arrays with less dense spacing of feature population.


Each substrate is exposed to five different conditions: (1) control conditions of 50 ppm chloride ion concentration and no pulse plating; (2) increased chloride conditions of 120 ppm chloride ion concentration; (3) increased chloride conditions of 120 ppm chloride ion concentration and pulse plating, for example, in accordance with the scheme of FIG. 1; (4) increased chloride conditions of 120 ppm chloride ion concentration, changed additive conditions of increasing overall bath suppression, and pulse plating with a “long” pulse step, for example, in accordance with a scheme that continues for 15 seconds with pulses occurring every 10 msecs; and (5) increased chloride conditions of 120 ppm chloride ion concentration, changed additive conditions of increasing overall bath suppression, same as condition (4) above, and pulse plating, for example, in accordance with the scheme of FIG. 1. The void counts of these five conditions are graphically shown in FIG. 4.


The results show that the void counts for Substrate A and Substrate B decrease as chloride ion concentration is increased in the plating bath, as seen by comparing the data for condition (2) and the data for condition (1) control. In addition, the void counts for Substrate A and Substrate B decrease as chloride ion concentration is increased in the plating bath in conjunction with a pulse plating scheme, as seen by comparing the data for condition (3) with the data for condition (2). The void counts for Substrate A and Substrate B still decrease with Bath B (increased chloride concentration, but changed additive conditions), as seen by comparing the data for condition (4) with the data for conditions (1) and (2), but increase slightly over the void counts achieved under condition (3).


The data for condition (5) as compared to the data for condition (4), the void count for Substrate A decreases and void count for Substrate B increases. This change in data may be dependent on the differences in array size between Substrate A and Substrate B, as discussed above, and the effects of the length of the pulsing period on substrates having different array size.


For each specific substrate, a desirable waveform can be optimized; therefore, in some instances, a long pulse step may be more desirable over a shorter pulse step, and vice versa. In addition, for each specific substrate a desirable bath additive concentration may be determined. Therefore, bath chemistry and waveforms can be optimized for each individual substrate.


As seen in comparing the data for conditions (3), (4), and (5), voiding increases in Substrate C (65 nm feature) as pulsing is added (particularly a “long” pulse step, as used in condition (4)), which indicates that pulsing does not improve bottom-up fill in larger features.


While illustrative embodiments have been illustrated and described, it will be appreciated that various changes can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure.
