  • Integration of CVD tantalum oxide with titanium nitride and tantalum nitride to form MIM capacitors
    Patent number: 6573150
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of integrating tantalum oxide into an MIM capacitor for a semiconductor device, comprising the step of vapor-depositing the tantalum oxide from an oxygen-free liquid precursor and under process conditions comprising a deposition temperature of less than about 500° C. and a deposition pressure of less than about 96 Torr, wherein the tantalum oxide is integrated into the MIM capacitor. Also provided is a method of forming an MIM capacitor comprising the step of integrating a tantalum oxide dielectric film with a tantalum nitride or a titanium nitride bottom electrode deposited on a substrate and a titanium nitride top electrode thereby forming an MIM capacitor.
