Abstract

The invention discloses a preparing method for a double-layer high-entropy alloy diffusion barrier layer. The method comprises the following steps: cleaning a single crystal Si base in an ultrasonic way; removing impurities in the single crystal Si base in an anti-sputtering cleaning way, and removing impurities in target materials and target sheets in a pre-sputtering cleaning way; depositing an HEANs thin film on the single crystal Si base in a sputtering way under the condition that the flow ratio of Ar to N is 1:(0.65-0.9); depositing an HEAs thin film on the ANs thin film in a sputtering way by using the Ar as the working gas when the thickness of the HEANs thin film reaches the designed thickness; adjusting the vacuum degree in a furnace to the degree not lower than 10-3 Pa when the thickness of the HEAs thin film reaches the designed thickness, and naturally cooling and releasing from the furnace to obtain the double-layer high-entropy alloy diffusion barrier layer. For the double-layer high-entropy alloy diffusion barrier layer obtained by the method, the method has the advantages that the bonding strength among the base, the Cu and the barrier layer is improved, and the whole heat stability of the diffusion barrier layer is improved. The method also has the characteristics of skillful technique for the preparing technology, low cost, low pollution and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The application belongs to the technical field of semiconductor integrated circuit manufacturing technology, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a double-layer high-entropy alloy diffusion barrier layer for deep submicron VLSI Cu interconnect film systems. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of ultra-large scale integration (ULSI) process technology, the feature size of integrated circuits continues to decrease, requiring the diffusion barrier layer to be as thin as possible while maintaining the diffusion barrier performance and thermal stability at high temperatures, which makes Al as a The problem of severely degraded device performance caused by the sharp increase in RC delay caused by interconnect materials is becoming more and more serious. Today, Cu has gradually replaced Al as a new generation of interconnect metal materials. However, although many physical properties of Cu itself have great advantages for ...
