MOCVD(metal-organic chemical vapor deposition) Cu 박막을 여러 조건에서 열처리를 행하여 그 전기적 특성과 미세구조의 변화를 통해 적절한 열처리 조건을 찾고 그 효과를 조사하였다. Ar 1 torr, $400^{\circ}C$에서 열처리를 거친 Cu 박막의 비저항이 1.98 $\mu$Ω.cm로 가장 낮게 나타났으며, 결정성의 경우도 $I_{(111)}/I_{(200)}$의 비가 2.03에서 3.11로 열 처리를 거치지 않았을 경우와 비교해서 약 50% 정도 향상된 값을 나타내었다. 열처리 후의electromigration(EM) 테스트에서는 Ar 1 torr, $400^{\circ}C$에서 열처리를 거친 배선이 EM에 대한 가장 높은 저항성을 보였다. 이것은 열처리 후 낮은 비저항, (111) 결정면의 성장, 그리고 표면 거칠기의 감소에서 기인한 것이다.

To establish the deposition condition of YBCO thin film on MgO single crystal substrates, processing parameters of deposition temperature, chemical composition and oxygen partial pressure were controlled. When using a Ba-deficient composition of YB $a_{1.8}$ $Cu_3$$O_{x}$, non-superconducting phase like CuO, $CuYO_2$ were formed, but BaCu02 was formed together with Yl23 phase when the starting composition was Ba-rich ($YBa_{2.3}$ $Cu_3$ $O_{x}$). The epitaxially grown Yl23 phase was formed at 760-$810^{\circ}C$ and $P_{O2}$=0.29-0.91 Torr.r.r.r.

Deposition condition of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$$O_{7-x}$ (YBCO) films on moving IBAD templates (CeO$_2$/IBAD-YSZ/SS) was studied in a hot-wall type metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process using single liquid source. The reel velocity was 40 cm/hr and the source mole ratios of Y(tmhd)$_3$:Ba(tmhd)$_2$:Cu(tmhd)$_2$ were 1:2.3:3.1 and 1:2.1:2,9, Two different types of IBAD templates with thin CeO$_2$ and thick CeO$_2$ layers were used, The YBCO films were successfully deposited at the deposition temperatures of 780~89$0^{\circ}C$ ; the a-axis growth was observed together with the c-axis growth up to 83$0^{\circ}C$. while the c-axis growth became dominant above 83$0^{\circ}C$. The top surface of the c-axis film was fairly dense and included a small amount of the a-axis growth, although the peaks of the a-axis grains were not observed in XRD pattern, The YBCO film deposited on IBAD template with thin CeO$_2$ layer showed low critical current of 2.5 A/cm-width. while the YBCO film deposited on IBAD template with thick CeO$_2$ layer showed higher critical current of 50 A/cm-width. This result indicates that thick CeO$_2$ layer is thermally more stable than thin CeO$_2$ layer at the high deposition temperature of the MOCVD process.s.

본 연구에서는 무전해도금으로 증착된 구리박막의 열적 및 접착특성에 관하여 고찰하였다. Si 기판에 MOCVD 방법으로 TaN 확산방지막을 증착한 후, 무전해 도금으로 구리박막을 증착하여 Cu/TaN/Si 다층구조를 제조공정하였다. 그리고, Ar 분위기에서 열처리시켰으며, 열처리온도에 따른 비저항 변화를 고찰함으로서 Cu/TaN/Si 계의 열적 특성을 분석하였다. 무전해도금 구리박막의 접착특성은 스크래치 테스트에 의해 평가하였으며, 열적 증착방법과 스퍼터 방법으로 증착된 구리 박막과 비교하였다. 스크래치 테스트 결과, 무전해도금 구리 박막의 접착력이 열적 증착과 스퍼터 방법으로 증착된 구리 박막보다 더 우수하였다.

선택성을 향상시키기 위해서 BPSG(Borophosphosilicate glass) 위에 형성한 TiN 패턴을 로(furnace) 열처리와 질소 플라즈마 처리를 한 후 유기 화학 기상 증착법(MOCVD； Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition)으로 구리 박막을 증착하였다. 먼저 650℃∼750℃에서 열처리한 후 150℃에서 구리 박막을 증착시켰을 때 750℃에서 열처리한 경우 TiN 표면 위에만 선택적으로 구리 증착이 일어났다. 질소 플라즈마 처리를 한 경우도 마찬가지로 BPSG 위에 구리 핵 형성이 억제됨을 알 수 있었다. 플라즈마 처리 온도를 증가시킬수록 BPSG 위의 구리 핵 형성이 더 효과적으로 억제되었다. 열처리와 플라즈마 처리 후 증착된 기판 표면을 TOF-SIMS(Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry)로 분석하였을 때 플라즈마 처리가 BPSG 표면의 구리 증착 작용기인 0-H(hydroxyl)기를 제거하여 구리의 선택성이 향상되었다고 해석하였다.

Copper film, which is expected to be used as interconnection material for 1 giga DRAM integrated circuits was deposited on hole and trench patterns by Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition(MOCVD) method. After a reflow process, contact and L/S patterns were filled by copper and the characteristics of the Cu reflow process were investigated. When deposited Cu films were reflowed, grain growth and agglomeration of Cu have occurred in surfaces and inner parts of patterns as well as complete filling in patterns. Also Cu thin oxide layers were formed on the surface of Cu films reflowed in $O_2$ambient. Agglomeration and oxidation of Cu had bad influence on the electrical properties of Cu films especially, therefore, their removal and prevention were studied simultaneously. As a pattern size is decreased, preferential reflow takes place inside the patterns and this makes advantages in filling patterns of deep submicron size completely. With Cu reflow process, we could fill the patterns with the size of deep sub-micron and it is expected that Cu reflow process could meet the conditions of excellent interconnection for 1 giga DRAM device when it is combined with Cu MOCVD and CMP process.

Diffusion barrier characteristics of hf(C,N) thin films for Cu metalliztion was investgated. Hf(C,N) thin films were depposited on Si(100) suvstrates by ppulsed D. C pplasma enhanced metal-organic chemical vappor depposition (ppE-MOCVD) using Tetrakis diethyl amido hafnium (Hf[NC2H5)2]4 : TDEAHf) and N2 as pprecursors. X-ray diffraction analyses sheet resistance measurment and Rutherford backscattering sppectroscoppy analyses revealed that HF(C,N) films pprevent diffusion of Cu fairly well upp to $600^{\circ}C$. At $700^{\circ}C$ however Hf(C,N) films allowed a significant diffusion of Cu into the Si substrate.

Feature size of Cu interconnects keep shrinking into several tens of nanometer level. For this reason, the Cu interconnects face challenging issues such as increase of electro-migration, line-width dependent electrical resistivity increase, and gap-filling difficulty in high aspect ratio structures. As the thickness of the Cu film decreases below 30 nm, the electrical resistivity is not any more constant, but rather exponential. Research on alloying with other elements have been started to inhibit such escalation in the electrical resistivity. A faint trace of Al added in Cu film by sputtering was reported to contribute to suppression of the increase of the electrical resistivity. From an industrial point of view, we introduced cyclic metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) in order to control Al concentration in the Cu film more easily by controlling the delivery time ratio of Cu and Al precursors. The amount of alloying element could be lowered at level of below 1 at%. Process of the alloy formation was applied into gap-filling to evaluate the performance of the gap-filling. Voidless gap-filling even into high aspect ratio trenches was achieved. In-depth analysis will be discussed in detail.
