Filed: 1998-08-21
Granted: 2000-12-11
Abstract: Methods of forming integrated circuitry memory devices are described. In a preferred implementation, methods of forming DRAM arrays are described. According to one aspect of the invention, a plurality of continuous active areas are formed relative to a semiconductive substrate. A plurality of word lines and active area isolation lines are formed over the continuous active areas. An insulative layer is formed over the word lines and active area isolation lines and in a common masking step, both capacitor contact openings and bit line contact openings are patterned over the insulative layer. Subsequently, capacitor contact openings and bit line contact openings are etched through the insulative layer over the continuous active area. In a preferred implementation the capacitor contact openings and the bit line contact openings are contemporaneously patterned and etched. Subsequently, conductive material is formed within the openings to provide conductive plugs. Capacitors and bit lines are then formed to be in electrical communication with the respective conductive plugs within the respective capacitor contact openings or bit line contact openings.

Title: Reactive preclean prior to metallization for sub-quarter micron application
Inventor: SUBRAHMANYAN SUCHITRA
IPC: H01L21/3065
Filed: 1998-09-30
Granted: 2000-11-11
Abstract: The present invention generally provides a precleaning process prior to metallization for submicron features on substrates. The method includes cleaning the submicron features with radicals from a plasma of a reactive gas such as oxygen, a mixture of CF4/O2, or a mixture of He/NF3, wherein the plasma is preferably generated by a remote plasma source and the radicals are delivered to a chamber in which the substrate is disposed. Native oxides remaining in the submicron features are preferably reduced in a second step by treatment with radicals from a plasma containing hydrogen. Following the first or both precleaning steps, the features can be filled with metal by available metallization techniques which typically include depositing a barrier/liner layer on exposed dielectric surfaces prior to deposition of aluminum, copper, or tungsten. The precleaning and metallization steps can be conducted on available integrated processing platforms.

Abstract: The present invention provides integrated circuit fabrication methods and devices wherein triple damascene structures are formed in five consecutive dielectric layers (312, 314, 316, 318 and 320), using two etching sequences. A first etching sequence comprising: depositing a first etch mask layer (322), on the fifth (top) layer (320), developing a power line trench pattern (324) and a via pattern (326) in the first mask layer, simultaneously etching the power line trench pattern (324) and the via pattern (326) through the top three dielectric layers (316, 318, 320), and removing the first etch mask layer. A second etching sequence including: depositing a second etch mask layer (330), on the fifth layer (320) and inside the power line trench (325) formed in the first etching sequence, developing a signal line pattern (332) overlaying the via pattern (327) in the second etch layer, etching the via pattern (327) through the second layer (312), and subsequently etching the via pattern (327) through the first layer (312) while simultaneously etching the signal line trench pattern (332) through the fifth layer (320). The etching sequences result in the formation of a power line trench (325) and a signal line trench (336) with an underlying via hole (340). These trenches and the via hole are simultaneously filled with a conductive material, such as a metal, to form a triple damascene structure including a power line (352) and a signal line (354) having an underlying via plug (356). This triple damascene structure uses three design rules while only requiring two etch mask layers, and only one planarizing or etch back stop to define the interconnect lines. Similar novel techniques can be employed to fabricate a quadruple damascene structure including a power line (450) having an underlying via plug (452) and a signal line (454) with an underlying via plug (456), while using four design rules. The inventive techniques can also be utilized to form similar triple and quadruple damascene structures in a variety of dielectric stacks. In additional embodiments, manufacturing systems (1110) are provided for fabricating IC structures, such as the novel damascene structures. These systems includes a controller (1100) which is adapted for interacting with a plurality of fabrication stations (1120, 1122, 1124, 1126, 1128, 1130 and 1132).

Title: Electronic mail system with paging service function
Inventor: LIN SHU-MEI
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 1999-12-03
Granted: 2001-08-11
Abstract: When a server apparatus of the electronic mail system receives a particular paging mail, a paging server apparatus sends out a pager call to the paged party. The paged party and the paging number are obtained by checking a database connected to the server apparatus of the electronic mail system. The data in the database are established by the service company that manages the electronic mail system, and are used to determine who will take action according to the mail sender and the type and contents of the paging mail. Namely, the paged party is determined by the service company and not by the mail sender. When a customer has an emergency service request, the customer can log into the electronic mail server apparatus via a network link. When a form prepared by the service company is read using an electronic mail client apparatus, the blanks thereof are filled up, and the paging mail is sent to the server using a public telephone network or the Internet. The server of the electronic mail system searches for the paged party and the pager number in the database according to the mail sender and the blank contents of the paging mail, and generates the pager call. The paging server apparatus sends out the pager call at definite times according to the time period set by the service company until the specified service personnel responds.
