摘要

The crystallization and orientation of chemical vapor-deposited copper films were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction. The ratios of Cu (1 1 1) peak intensity to Cu (2 0 0) [I(1 1 1)/I(2 0 0)] of the film deposited at different temperatures were plotted as a function of temperature. Then it can be found that the ratio of I(I 1 1)11(2 0 0) increased with the deposition temperature, and 400 degrees C is the best one for electromigration when the films are grown in diluting N-2, and/or annealing by N-2 or by H-2. In addition, the morphology of copper films was characterized by atomic force microscopy, and it was found that the smoothness of the films grown in diluting N-2 and/or annealing by N-2 are improved, while the films annealing by H-2 have no significant changes.
