METHODS OF MANUFACTURING INTERCONNECT STRUCTURES

Fuente: Wipo "precision agriculture"
Methods of manufacturing interconnect structures as part of a microelectronic device fabrication process are described. The methods include forming a dielectric layer including at least one feature defining a gap having sidewalls and a bottom on a substrate. The methods further include forming a blocking layer on the bottom by exposing the substrate to a blocking compound; selectively depositing a barrier layer on the sidewalls; selectively depositing a metal liner on the barrier layer on the sidewalls; removing the blocking layer; and performing a gap fill process to fill the gap with a gapfill material.
