HfSiN/Cu/HfSiN/SiO2/Si multilayer films were prepared on Si substrate via magnetron sputtering technology. Annealing experiments of samples among 400°C and 700°C were carried out in order to investigate the anti-diffusion performance of HfSiN thin film to Cu. XRD, AFM and FPP were used to characterize the structure, morphology and the resistivity of the thin films before and after annealing, respectively. The failure temperature and failure mechanism of HfSiN thin film were analyzed. The anti-diffusion failure temperature of HfSiN thin film is 600 °C. And the main reason is that a large number of Cu large particles passed through HfSiN diffusion barrier layer and reacted with Si substrate and oxygen to generate Cu3Si and CuO with high resistance.

AbstractThe feasibility of Si-implanted TiN as a diffusion barrier between Cu and Si was investigated. Barrier effectiveness was evaluated via reverse leakage current of Cu/TixSiyNz/Si diodes as a function of post-deposition annealing temperature and time, and was found to depend heavily on the film composition and microstructure. TiN implanted with Si28, l0keV, 5xl016ions/cm2 formed an amorphous ternary TixSiyNz layer whose performance as a barrier to Cu diffusion exceeded that of unimplanted, polycrystalline TiN. Results from current-voltage, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Auger depth profiling measurements will be presented. The relationship between Si-implantation dose, TixSiyNz structure and reverse leakage current of Cu/TixSiyNz/Si diodes will be discussed, along with implications as to the suitability of these structures in Cu metallization.
