    • A method of forming isolation regions in a silicon substrate comprising the steps of forming a trench in the silicon substrate, filling the trench with a silanol polymer material then heating the silanol polymer material so that silicon dioxide is formed in the trench and thereby forms the isolation region. In the preferred embodiment, the silicon substrate is covered by a masking stack which is then etched to expose the underlying silicon substrate. The silicon substrate is then etched to form the trench and the silanol polymer material is deposited in the trench and fills the trench from the bottom up thereby avoiding divots and other defects. The silanol polymer grows faster on the silicon substrate than it does on the nitride. After the silanol polymer is reacted to form the silicon dioxide, CMP polishing is then used to remove the remaining masking stack and silicon dioxide above the surface of the silicon substrate.

    • A new process for depositing titanium metal layers via chemical vapor deposition is disclosed. The process provides deposited titanium layers having a high degree of conformality, even in trenches and contact openings having aspect ratios greater than 1:5. The reaction gases for the improved process are titanium tetrachloride and a hydrocarbon gas, which for a preferred embodiment of the process is methane. The reaction is carried out in a plasma environment created by a radio frequency source greater than 10 KHz. The key to obtaining titanium metal as a reaction product, rather than titanium carbide, is to set the plasma sustaining electrical power within a range that will remove just one hydrogen atom from each molecule of the hydrocarbon gas. In a preferred embodiment of the process, highly reactive methyl radicals (CH.sub.3 --) are formed from methane gas. These radicals attack the titanium-chlorine bonds of the tetrachloride molecule and form chloromethane, which is evacuated from the chamber as it is formed. Titanium metal deposits on a wafer or other substrate that has been heated to a temperature within a preferred range of 200-500.degree. C.

    • This invention is a method for forming fluorine-doped silicate glass having low concentrations of free fluorine atoms. A first embodiment of the invention provides simultaneous deposition of the fluorine-doped glass and scavenging of free fluorine atoms from the surface of the depositing material. A silicon-containing compound, an oxidizer, a fluorine containing compound and a hydrogen-containing gas are introduced into a plasma chemical vapor deposition chamber. A fluorine-doped glass layer having low concentrations of free fluorine atoms deposits. A second embodiment of the invention provides for scavenging of free fluorine atoms from an already-deposited fluorine-doped glass layer by annealing the layer in a forming gas containing hydrogen. The hydrogen gas diffuses into the deposited film and reacts with free fluorine atoms. The hydrogen fluoride so formed migrates through the matrix to the surface of the deposited film, where it is released into the ambient. A third embodiment of the invention provides a method for decreasing the amount of free fluorine atoms in an already-deposited fluorine-doped glass layer by depositing a capping layer over the glass layer and annealing the resulting stack. Many of the free fluorine atoms in the layer migrate and react with dangling silicon bonds within the layer. A subsequent anneal with the capping layer removed and in the presence of a forming gas containing hydrogen, as heretofore described, further lowers the concentration of free fluorine atoms.
