ABSTRACT:
A method for forming a rough ruthenium-containing layer on the surface of a substrate assembly includes providing a ruthenium-containing precursor into the reaction chamber. A rough ruthenium layer may be deposited on the surface of the substrate assembly at a rate of about 100 Å/minute to about 500 Å/minute using the ruthenium-containing precursor. Further, a rough ruthenium oxide layer may be formed by providing a ruthenium-containing precursor and an oxygen-containing precursor into the reaction chamber to deposit the rough ruthenium oxide layer on the surface of the substrate assembly at a rate of about 100 Å/minute to about 1200 Å/minute. An anneal of the layers may be performed to further increase the roughness. In addition, conductive structures including a rough ruthenium layer or a rough ruthenium oxide layer are provided. Such layers may be used in conjunction with non-rough ruthenium and/or non-rough ruthenium oxide layers to form conductive structures. For example, such structures may be part of a capacitor structure, e.g., bottom electrode of a capacitor.
