Abstract

A novel low temperature CVD process - atom reaction CVD process for metal film depositions has been developed by using hydrogen atoms reacting with metal compounds. High purity copper films, with low resistivity of ∼ 2 μΩ cm, good step coverage to submicron holes and good adhesion to various substrates, were obtained by using this process with Cu(HFA)2 source at substrate temperatures below 150 °C.
