When the popular course oriented regular to the substrate is further improved, the chance that a (111) face having a minimal surface vitality faces with the (111) face at a wire cross section is decreased, in order that a slit-like disconnection because of the stressmigration decreased and the interconnection reliability might be improved. In one side of the present invention, there may be supplied a way for making single-crystal aluminum interconnection, the strategy comprises the steps of forming a groove having a predetermined pattern shape on the floor of a substrate; forming a steel film on the substrate whereas reaction with the floor of the substrate is suppressed; and agglomerating the metallic movie by in-situ annealing, whereby agglomeration of the steel movie is started before the metallic movie reacts with the surface of the substrate because of annealing, while formation of a native oxide on the steel movie is suppressed, and whereby the metallic movie is stuffed into the groove by annealing at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined time frame. In the identical determine, there may be formed a (111) face having a minimal floor power from a bottom face and side face of a groove 18, in order that it was confirmed that most of a filled interconnection 19 formed within the groove 18 is a single crystal the identical orientation.

Then, gasoline utilized within the etching was CF.sub.4, an etching stress was 7.Eight mTorr, and the utilized energy was 50 W. By the RIE, the underside face and aspect face of the groove are made so that wettability thereof is sweet. In the typical apply, aluminum (Al) alloy in which Al is a serious part is used as an electrode wire material for an LSI (Large-Scale Integration) circuit so as to form a wiring steel by etching a steady movie. I'd recomend using strips of PCB copper clad or stable solderable metallic strips (like brass or thick wire). Alternatively, the remaining (residual) steel will be filled into a separated dummy groove in order to not trigger an interconnection short-circuiting. FIGS. 45A-45C show an electrode wiring construction where there's formed the wettability bettering layer in the area aside from the groove portion. FIGS. 43A-43C show electrode wiring structures the place there are provided barrier layers. However, a wire width and a thickness of wire film are minified on account of an ever tremendous structure of the LSI circuit, so that there's precipitated a problem the place a wire reliability therefor is inferior. However, though the preferred orientation indicated when the Al is formed by the convention sputtering technique, a nice crystal grain at an early stage of film formation reaches immediately with a neighboring positive crystal grain.

So as to solve an issue of the low interconnection reliability, that a crystal orientation of Al interconnection is managed has been examined. A resistance worth of the interconnection pertains to a R-C (resistance-capacitance) delay and is a crucial issue which determines an operational pace of the semiconductor gadget, so that a low resistance is required. With its excessive ductility, low electrical resistance, mild weight, and excellent resistance to corrosion, aluminum wire is properly suited to many applications. The largest single use of aluminum wire and rod is for top power transmission strains. It's a really fascinating system The 74HC14 hex schmitt inverter is the most popular inverter for use in nervous networks. You can also use potentiometers to bias the microcore. Even in a case the place the spherically agglomerated Al islands in contact with the only-crystal interconnection might be eliminated at a later course of, there could also be remained a crystal grain boundary in a portion of the only-crystal interconnection after the removal thereof, thus possibly contributing to the reduction of wiring reliability. The current invention further relates to an electrode wire construction wherein wire reliability is improved, a wire resistance and get in touch with resistance is decreased, a heat radiation effect for wiring is improved, a stress for the semiconductor gadget is relaxed, and a wiring adhesion is improved.

As miniaturization of the device turns into significant, the low resistance is also required in terms of a self-heating drawback in the interconnection. As causes for a low interconnection reliability, there may be considered an electromigration phenomenon and a stressmigration phenomenon. Taking an example of Al here, the electromigration is an phenomenon the place an electron flowing the interconnection collides with an Al atom so that the Al atom is transferred. The stress migration is a phenomenon in which the switch of Al atom is attributable to a mechanical stress of other materials used for LSI. Then, the switch of Al atom is more likely to occur for the grain boundary within the interconnection, in order that the atom of the grain boundary is depleted and the interconnection is disconnected. Therefore, the electromigration happens in a manner that a transfer of Al atom as much as the grain boundary occurs in a similar fee and the rate the switch of Al atom is elevated on the grain boundary. Gases utilized in the RIE are mixture of CF.sub.Four and H.sub.2 which movement at a price of sixteen SCCM and 24 SCCM, respectively.
