Abstract :
The metal bit-line common contact (MBCC) process has been successfully integrated in 0.17 μm DRAM and in merged DRAM in logic devices. By introducing in-situ i-PVD Ti-TiN on W-plug MBCC, reliable electrical performance, P+ Rc<1000 Ω/cnt and N+ Rc<500 Ω/cnt without leakage, and process stability are achieved after thermal treatment at 750°C for 100 min
