Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for metallization process sequences are provided for forming reliable interconnects including lines, vias and contacts. An initial barrier layer, such as Ta or TaN, is first formed on a patterned substrate followed by seed layer formed using high density plasma PVD techniques. The structure is then filled using either 1) electroplating, 2) PVD reflow, 3) CVD followed by PVD reflow, or 4) CVD.
