ELECTROLYTE AND DEPOSITION OF A COPPER BARRIER LAYER IN A DAMASCENE PROCESS

The present invention relates to an electrolyte and its use in a process for fabricating copper interconnects. The electrolyte of pH greater than 6.0 comprises copper ions, manganese or zinc ions, and ethylenediamine which complexes the copper. A thin barrier layer is formed by annealing the deposit...

Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to an electrolyte and its use in a process for fabricating copper interconnects. The electrolyte of pH greater than 6.0 comprises copper ions, manganese or zinc ions, and ethylenediamine which complexes the copper. A thin barrier layer is formed by annealing the deposited copper alloy, which causes manganese or zinc to migrate to the interface between the insulating dielectric material and the copper.
