Barrier material for copper structures
   
   

A barrier material that is particularly suited as a barrier layer in copper interconnects structures found in semiconductor structures. The barrier layer contains one or more regions with one region containing at least 50 atom percent of a copper interface metal. The copper interface metal is selected from ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, silver, gold, platinum, iridium, selenium, tellurium, or alloys thereof. The barrier layer also contains a dielectric interface material.
