Abstract
A method for forming a metal film including forming a metal barrier layer on a surface of a substrate, on a bottom surface of a recess and on sidewalls of the recess, forming a first metal film on the substrate but not in the recess, treating the first metal film with nitrogen plasma to form an insulation film including nitrogen, forming a second metal film on a portion of the metal barrier layer in the recess, and forming a third metal film on the substrate, the recess and the insulation film.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A semiconductor device, comprising:
a metal barrier layer formed in a recess of a substrate; an insulation film formed on a portion of the metal barrier layer but not in the recess; a metal film formed only on a portion of the metal barrier layer in the recess; and another metal film formed on the substrate.
2 . The semiconductor device of claim 1 , wherein the insulation film is formed by treating a metal film with nitrogen plasma.
3 . The semiconductor device of claim 1 , wherein the metal barrier layer is formed on the substrate.
4 . The semiconductor device of claim 1 , wherein the another metal film is formed on the substrate, the recess and the insulation film.
5 . A method of forming a semiconductor device, comprising:
forming a metal barrier layer in a recess of a substrate; forming an insulation film on a portion of the metal barrier layer but not in the recess; forming a metal film only on a portion of the metal barrier layer in the recess; and forming another metal film on the substrate.
6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the insulation film is formed by treating a metal film with a nitrogen plasma treatment.
7 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the another metal film is formed on the substrate, the recess and the insulation film.
8 . The device of claim 1 , wherein said recess further comprises:
a portion of the metal barrier layer not in the recess and extending beyond a periphery of the substrate.
9 . The device of claim 1 , wherein said recess further comprises:
a portion of the metal barrier layer not in the recess and extending beyond a periphery of the substrate; and a portion of the insulation film extending beyond a periphery of the metal barrier layer.
10 . The method of claim 5 , wherein said recess further includes a portion of the metal barrier layer not in the recess and extending beyond a periphery of the substrate.
11 . The method of claim 5 , wherein said recess further includes a portion of the metal barrier layer not in the recess and extending beyond a periphery of the substrate and a portion of the insulation film extending beyond a periphery of the metal barrier layer.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
