MANUFACTURABLE RELIABLE DIFFUSION-BARRIER

Devices and methods are presented to fabricate diffusion barrier layers on a substrate. Presently, barrier layers comprising a nitride layer and a pure metal layer are formed using a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process that requires multiple ignition steps, and results in nitride-layer thickness...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Devices and methods are presented to fabricate diffusion barrier layers on a substrate. Presently, barrier layers comprising a nitride layer and a pure metal layer are formed using a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process that requires multiple ignition steps, and results in nitride-layer thicknesses of no less than 2 nm. This invention discloses devices and process to produce nitride-layers of less than
