The semiconductor structure includes a substrate; a dielectric layer formed on the substrate; an opening, formed through the dielectric layer; a contact layer formed at bottom of the opening; a blocking layer formed on a sidewall surface of the opening; and a plug formed in the opening. The plug is formed on a sidewall surface of the blocking layer and in contact with the contact layer.

Semiconductor structure

A semiconductor structure and its fabrication method are provided. The method includes: providing a substrate and a first metal layer in the substrate; forming a dielectric layer with a first opening exposing a portion of a top surface of the first metal layer on the substrate; bombarding the portion of the top surface of the first metal layer exposed by the first opening, by using a first sputtering treatment, to make metal materials on the top surface of the first metal layer be sputtered onto sidewalls of the first opening to form a first adhesion layer; and forming a second metal layer on a surface of the first adhesion layer and on the exposed portion of the top surface of the first metal layer using a first metal selective growth process.

Semiconductor structure and fabrication method thereof

A method for forming a semiconductor structure includes providing an initial semiconductor structure formed in a substrate; forming a dielectric layer on the substrate; forming a first opening in the dielectric layer to expose a portion of the initial semiconductor structure; etching the portion of the initial semiconductor structure exposed at a bottom of the first opening to form a second opening in the initial semiconductor structure; and forming a contact layer in the second opening and a third opening in the contact layer. The contact layer has a concave top surface, and the third opening is located above the concave top surface of the contact layer and under the first opening. The method further includes forming a conductive structure in the first opening and the third opening.

Semiconductor structure and formation method thereof

Semiconductor device and fabrication method are provided. The method for forming the semiconductor device includes providing a substrate; forming a dielectric layer on the substrate; forming a through hole in the dielectric layer, the through hole exposing a portion of a top surface of the substrate; performing a surface treatment process on the dielectric layer of sidewalls of the through hole; and filling a metal layer in the through hole.

Semiconductor device and fabrication method thereof

A method for forming a semiconductor structure includes forming a dielectric layer with an opening on a substrate; forming a material film in the opening; forming a blocking film on the material film; and removing the blocking film at the bottom of the opening to expose the material film. The remaining blocking film forms an initial blocking layer. The method further includes forming a conductive-material film in the opening; performing an annealing process to form a contact layer at the bottom of the opening by making the substrate, the material film, and the conductive-material film react with each other; and planarizing the conductive-material film, the initial blocking layer, and the material film to expose the dielectric layer. The remaining initial blocking layer forms a blocking layer in the opening; and the remaining conductive-material film forms a plug in contact with the blocking layer and the contact layer.
