Abstract

See full text

A method of fabricating integrated circuitry includes depositing a spin-on-dielectric over a semiconductor substrate. The spin-on-dielectric comprises a polysilazane. Only some of the polysilazane is etched from the semiconductor substrate. Such etching comprises exposure to an etching fluid comprising at least one of a) an aqueous fluid having a pH greater than 7.0, or b) a basic fluid solution. After the etching, remaining spin-on-dielectric comprising polysilazane is annealed effective to form an annealed dielectric which is different in composition from the spin-on-dielectric, and preferably having a dielectric constant k which is different from that of the initially deposited spin-on-dielectric.
