Profile Control Of Oxide Trench Features For Dual Damascene Applications

US Patent:
6540885, Apr 1, 2003
Filed:
Mar 28, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/821427
Inventors:
Douglas Keil - Fremont CA
Eric Wagganer - Milpitas CA
Bryan A. Helmer - Fremont CA
Assignee:
Lam Research Corp. - Fremont CA
International Classification:
C23C 1400
US Classification:
20419233, 20419235, 216 38, 216 39, 216 59, 216 67
Abstract:
Methods for etching a trench into a dielectric layer are provided. One exemplary method controls an ion-to-neutral flux ratio during etching so as to achieve a neutral limited regime in an ion assisted etch mechanism where the neutral limited regime causes bottom rounding. The method includes modulating physical sputtering causing microtrenching to offset the bottom rounding so as to produce a substantially flat bottom trench profile. Some notable advantages of the discussed methods of etching a trench into a dielectric layer includes the ability to eliminate the intermediate etch stop layer. Elimination of the etch stop layer will decrease fabrication cost and process time. Additionally, the elimination of the intermediate stop layer will improve device performance.

Plasma Etching Of Organic Antireflective Coating

US Patent:
6630407, Oct 7, 2003
Filed:
Mar 30, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/820689
Inventors:
Douglas Keil - Fremont CA
Jim Bowers - Brookfield CT
Eric Wagganer - Milpitas CA
Rao Annapragada - Union City CA
Tri Le - Milpitas CA
Assignee:
Lam Research Corporation - Fremont CA
International Classification:
H01L 21302
US Classification:
438717, 216 47
Abstract:
A semiconductor manufacturing process wherein an organic anti-reflective coating (ARC) is plasma etched with selectivity to an underlying dielectric layer and/or overlying photoresist. The etchant gas is fluorine-free and includes a carbon-containing gas such as CO gas, a nitrogen-containing gas such as N , an optional oxygen-containing gas such as O , and an optional inert carrier gas such as Ar. The etch rate of the ARC can be at least 10 times higher than that of the underlying layer. Using a combination of CO and O with N and a carrier gas such as Ar, it is possible to obtain dielectric:ARC selectivity of at least 10. The process is useful for etching contact or via openings in damascene and self-aligned contact or trench structures.

Assignee:
Lam Research Corporation - Fremont CA
International Classification:
G03F 700
US Classification:
430313, 430311, 430330
Abstract:
A method for creating semiconductor devices is provided. A photoresist layer is provided on a wafer. The photoresist layer is patterned. Polymers in the patterned photoresist layer are chemically cross-linked by exposure to at least one reactive chemical. The pattern in the photoresist layer is transferred to the wafer. A reaction chamber for processing a wafer with a patterned layer of photoresist material, wherein the photoresist material was patterned by exposing the photoresist material using light of a wavelength less than 248 nm is provided. A chamber is provided with a central cavity. A wafer support for supporting the wafer in the central cavity is provided. A cross-linking reactive chemical source in fluid contact with the chamber and which provides a reactive chemical which causes cross-linking of the photoresist is provided.

Plasma In-Situ Treatment Of Chemically Amplified Resist

US Patent:
7022611, Apr 4, 2006
Filed:
Apr 28, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/426043
Inventors:
Douglas L. Keil - Fremont CA, US
Wan-Lin Chen - Sunnyvale CA, US
Eric A. Hudson - Berkeley CA, US
S. M. Reza Sadjadi - Saratoga CA, US
Mark H. Wilcoxson - Piedmont CA, US
Assignee:
Lam Research Corporation - Fremont CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/302
US Classification:
438706, 438705, 438709, 438710, 438725, 430296, 430313, 430328
Abstract:
A method for creating semiconductor devices by etching a layer over a wafer is provided. A photoresist layer is provided on a wafer. The photoresist layer is patterned. The wafer is placed in a process chamber. The photoresist is hardened by providing a hardening plasma containing high energy electrons in the process chamber to harden the photoresist layer, wherein the high energy electrons have a density. The layer is etched within the process chamber with an etching plasma, where a density of high energy electrons in the etching plasma is less than the density of high energy electrons in the hardening plasma.
