Method of metal sputtering for integrated circuit metal routing
A method of forming a device, comprising the following steps. A wafer holder and inner walls of a chamber are coated with a seasoning layer The wafer is placed upon the wafer holder and is cleaned wherein a portion of the seasoning layer is re-deposited upon the wafer over and between adjacent wafer conductive structures. The wafer is removed from the chamber and at least two adjacent upper metal structures are formed over at least one portion of a metal barrier layer. The exposed portions of the metal barrier layer are etched and removed, exposing portions of the re-deposited seasoning layer portions using the metal barrier layer etch process which also removes any exposed portions of the re-deposited seasoning layer portions that are comprised of a material etchable in the metal barrier layer etch process.
