  • Patent number: 6573196
    Abstract: A method of forming an organosilicate layer is disclosed. The organosilicate layer is formed by applying an electric field to a gas mixture comprising a phenyl-based silane compound. The gas mixture may optionally include an oxidizing gas. The organosilicate layer is compatible with integrated circuit fabrication processes. In one integrated circuit fabrication process, the organosilicate layer is used as an anti-reflective coating (ARC). In another integrated circuit fabrication process, the organosilicate layer is incorporated into a damascene structure.
