Abstract

See full text

A high conductivity interconnect structure is formed by electroplating or electroless plating of Cu or a Cu-base alloy on a seed layer comprising an alloy of a catalytically active metal, such as Cu, and a refractory metal, such as Ta. The seed layer also functions as a barrier/adhesion layer for the subsequently plated Cu or Cu-base alloy. Another embodiment comprises initially depositing a refractory metal barrier layer before depositing the seed layer.
