Abstract
Elapsed time change in sheet resistance (SR) of Cu/barrier metal stacks have been evaluated correlated with behaviors of vacancies in Cu films at Cu/barrier interface areas (Cu barrier interfaces) by a positron-annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS), and it was shown that the elapsed time change in SR strongly related to positron mean lifetime, namely vacancy clusters size, and those film properties showed a reasonable correlation with a reported SIV characteristics.
