The authors report a novel method of fabricating chemical-vapor-deposited (CVD) small-grain tungsten films and its application to multilevel metal interconnects. By interrupting the tungsten grain growth using a layer of thin silicon and by consuming the silicon layer during subsequent tungsten deposition, tungsten films with fine grains can be obtained. The fine-grained tungsten shows a significant improvement in film roughness and offer an advantage for plug formation. Grain size and interface silicon thickness effects on film resistivity are characterized. Good device characteristics have been obtained using this layered tungsten for metal wiring or window plug applications.<<ETX>>
