Abstract

See full text

An intermetal dielectric structure for integrated circuits is provided having a premetal dielectric and a metal line thereon, with a SRO liner on the premetal dielectric layer and the metal lines, a FGS dielectric layer over the SRO liner, a SRO film over the FGS dielectric layer, and a TEOS dielectric layer over the SRO film. Vias through the FGS dielectric layer are treated to have fluorine-free regions around the vias. The structure is not subject to fluorine attack on the metal lines or vias while having a stable FGS dielectric layer with less fluorine out-gassing and out-diffusion.
