Treatment and doping of barrier layers

Methods of treating a film on a substrate in a PVD chamber are described. The methods include biasing the substrate with an RF power to provide a biased substrate, etching the film on the biased substrate with at least one gas, and sputtering first and second sources of cobalt onto the film on the b...

Zusammenfassung:Methods of treating a film on a substrate in a PVD chamber are described. The methods include biasing the substrate with an RF power to provide a biased substrate, etching the film on the biased substrate with at least one gas, and sputtering first and second sources of cobalt onto the film on the biased substrate to form a doped film. Some embodiments advantageously provide doped films as liners or barrier layers. Some embodiments provide for the deposition of bulk materials on the doped films. Some embodiments advantageously minimize the thickness of the individual layers.
