Abstract

The invention provides a processing method capable of preventing electrochemical corrosion of through-hole metals. The processing method at least comprises the following steps: firstly, providing a metal interconnection structure including a first metal layer, an insulating layer which is positioned on the first metal layer and is provided with a through hole and a second metal layer which is positioned on the insulating layer; filling the through hole with a third metal layer communicated with the first metal layer and the second metal layer; then, putting the metal interconnection structure into a reaction cavity, introducing mixed gas of N2 and H2O and performing ionization on the mixed gas of N2 and H2O to dissociate H2O to form hydrogen atoms, wherein the hydrogen atoms capture positive charge in the second metal layer to prevent the third metal layer in the through hole from being corroded by performing electrochemical reaction on the positive charge; the second metal layer is made of aluminum-copper alloy; the third metal layer is made of tungsten.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor technology, in particular to a treatment method for avoiding electrochemical corrosion of through-hole metal. Background technique [0002] The manufacture of integrated circuits can be divided into two main parts. First, the active and passive devices are fabricated on the surface of the wafer, which is called the front line (FEOL); and then it is necessary to use a metal system on the chip to connect each device and Different layers, this is called Back of Line (BEOL). [0003] Chip metallization in the back-line is the process of depositing a conductive metal film on a chip by chemical or physical treatment. This process is closely related to the deposition of the dielectric. The metal wires transmit signals in the IC circuit, and the dielectric layer ensures that the signals are not affected by adjacent metal wires. A through hole is an opening that passes through various dielectric layers to fo...
