The in-situ X-ray diffraction results reveal that the Cu oxidation can be inhibited by doping C in either Ru adhesion layer or TaN barrier layer. The RuC/barrier becomes more robust with certain amount of C doped in Ru. ALD Cu2O on the RuC substrate was carried out and the effect of C on reduction of Cu oxide was observed.enInhibition of enhanced Cu oxidation on rutheniumconference paper
