DIFFUSION BARRIER LAYER FOR INTEGRATED-CIRCUIT DEVICES

DIFFUSION BARRIER LAYER FOR INTEGRATED-CIRCUIT DEVICES

Titanium carbonitride has been discovered to be an effective diffusion barrier material for use in metallization structure for MOS integrated-circuit devices. A layer of the material (24) deposited under aluminum (22) prevents deleterious aluminum-silicon or aluminum-silicide interactions.
