Abstract

See full text

A process produces a layer of material which functions as a copper barrier layer, adhesion layer and a copper seed layer in a device of an integrated circuit, particularly in damascene or dual damascene structures. The method includes a step of depositing a diffusion barrier layer over a dielectric, a step of depositing a layer of graded metal alloy of two or more metals, and a step of depositing a copper seed layer, which step is essentially a part of the step of depositing the alloy layer.
