Patent number: 9334583Abstract: An epitaxial growth method for preventing auto-doping effect is presented. This method starts with the removal of impurities from the semiconductor substrate and the reaction chamber to be used. Then the semiconductor substrate is loaded in the cleaned reaction chamber to be pre-baked under vacuum conditions before the extraction of the dopant atoms desorbed from the surface of the semiconductor substrate. Next, under high temperature and low gas flow conditions, a first intrinsic epitaxial layer is formed on the surface of said semiconductor substrate. Following this, under low temperature and high gas flow conditions, a second epitaxial layer of required thickness is formed on the structural surface of the grown intrinsic epitaxial layer. Last, silicon wafer is unloaded after cooling. This method can prevent auto-doping effect during the epitaxial growth on semiconductor substrate and thus ensure the performance and enhance the reliability of the devices in peripheral circuit region.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2011Date of Patent: May 10, 2016Assignee: SHANGHAI INSTITUTE OF MICROSYSTEM AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, CHINESE ACADEMY OF SCIENCESInventors: Chao Zhang, Zhitang Song, Xudong Wan, Bo Liu, Guanping Wu, Ting Zhang, Zuoya Yang, Zhifeng Xie

Patent number: 6424044Abstract: A method of forming a boron carbide layer for use as a barrier and an etch-stop layer in a copper dual damascene structure, and the structure itself are disclosed. In addition to providing a good barrier to copper diffusion, good insulating properties, high etch selectivity with respect to dielectric insulators, boron carbide also provides good electrical characteristics because of its low dielectric constant of less than 5. The amorphous boron carbide is formed in a PECVD chamber by introducing a boron source gas such as B2H6, B5H9+, and carbon source gas such as CH4 and C2H6 at a deposition temperature of about 400° C. Any one, or any combination of the passivation, etch-stop, cap layers of the damascene structure can comprise boron carbide.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2002Date of Patent: July 23, 2002Assignees: Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing Ltd., Institute of MicroelectronicsInventors: Licheng M.
