Abstract: A plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method includes loading a wafer having a magnetic layer thereon into a processing chamber equipped with a radio frequency (RF) system, introducing an aromatic hydrocarbon precursor into the processing chamber, and turning on an RF source of the RF system to decompose the aromatic hydrocarbon precursor into active radicals at a frequency greater than about 1000 Hz to form a graphene layer over the magnetic layer.

Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a semiconductor substrate, a gate structure, a source/drain structure, a contact, a dielectric layer, and a metal line. The gate structure is on the semiconductor substrate. The source/drain structure is adjacent to the gate structure. The contact lands on the source/drain structure. The dielectric layer spas the contact and the gate structure. The metal line extends through the dielectric layer to the contact. The metal line includes a liner over the contact, a magnetic layer over the liner, a graphene layer over the magnetic layer, and a filling metal over the graphene layer. The magnetic layer has a greater permeability coefficient than the filling metal.

Abstract: A method includes loading a wafer into a processing chamber, wherein the processing chamber is wound by a coil, and the coil is coupled to an RF system; supplying an aromatic hydrocarbon precursor into the processing chamber; after supplying the aromatic hydrocarbon precursor, turning on an RF power of the RF system to decompose the aromatic hydrocarbon precursor into active radicals and cyclize the active radicals into a graphene layer over a metal layer on the wafer; and after an entirety of the metal layer being covered by the graphene layer, turning off the RF power of the RF system to stop forming the graphene layer.
