Embodiment Construction
[0027]The methods and apparatus provided herein are useful for electroplating a variety of metals including but not limited to copper and its alloys on semiconductor substrates having one or more recessed features (e.g., trenches and vias). The methods and apparatus are useful for electroplating on 300 mm and, particularly, on 450 mm semiconductor wafers and on resistive seed layers. For example, the apparatus and methods, can be used, in some embodiments, for electroplating on seed layers having seed sheet resistance of up to about 50 Ohm / sq. (inclusive of this number), e.g. with sheet resistance of between about 10-50 Ohm / sq., such as between about 20-40 Ohm / sq. Examples of substrates that can be processed by provided methods include, without limitation, a 300 mm wafer having a copper seed layer having a thickness of between about 10-2000 A, or a 450 mm wafer having a copper seed layer having a thickness of between about 20-2000 A. In some embodiments the initial copper seed layer...
