摘要
The standard method of depositing tungsten is by LPCVD using SiH4-H-2-WF6 chemistry at temperatures of >300 degrees C. This work has studied the use of PECVD with H-2-WF6 for tungsten deposition. It was found that at deposition temperatures below 200 degrees C, the layers are polycrystalline beta phase tungsten, resistivity 50 mu Omega cm. Annealing at 900 degrees C decreases the resistivity to 10 mu Omega cm. The tungsten layers deposited at 200 degrees C and above are of the alpha phase and exhibit an as deposited resistivity of 15 mu Omega cm for 150nm layers. For the layers deposited on titanium at T>300 degrees C the initial deposition is dominated by the reduction of WF6 by the titanium until a self limiting thickness is produced. This results in titanium fluoride species being incorporated at the titanium-tungsten interface.
