  • Patent number: 10679859
    Abstract: Interconnect structures and corresponding techniques for forming the interconnect structures are disclosed herein. An exemplary method includes forming a contact opening in a dielectric layer. The contact opening has sidewalls defined by the dielectric layer and a bottom defined by a conductive feature. An ALD-like nitrogen-containing plasma pre-treatment process is performed on the sidewalls (and, in some implementations, the bottom) of the contact opening. An ALD process is performed to form a titanium-and-nitrogen containing barrier layer over the sidewalls and the bottom of the contact opening. A cobalt-containing bulk layer is then formed over the titanium-and-nitrogen-containing barrier layer. A cycle of the ALD-like nitrogen-containing plasma pre-treatment process can include a nitrogen-containing plasma pulse phase and a purge phase. A cycle of the ALD process can include a titanium-containing pulse phase, a first purge phase, a nitrogen-containing plasma pulse phase, and a second purge phase.
