The changes of metal oxides on surface and inside the TiW layer were characterized with Auger surface scan and depth profiling. The dominant species were identified as tungsten oxide (W-O) and copper oxide (Cu-O). Qualitative chart featuring atomic peak intensity (%) in response to the thickness (min) were plotted to show the trends of both W-O and Cu-O across the samples treated with different conditions. DHF can etch away Cu-O but at the same time enhanced W-O. Cu-O was enhanced under slow wet/dried condition at ambient air and by O2 plasma while W-O is not affected in both conditions.","PeriodicalId":206237,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 23rd International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits (IPFA)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115078169","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to their influence on the mechanical properties, microstructure and texture of thin film have become important topics in materials science. The effect of thickness on microstructure and texture in Cu thin films was investigated with EBSD (electron backscatter diffraction) and XRD (X-ray diffraction) techniques in the present work. The experimental results show that the average grain size is less than 250 nm and grain growth with the thickness increasing in Cu thin films. The volume fractions of both high-angle boundaries and Σ3 twin boundaries increase with the thickness increasing of Cu thin films. There exist stronger {111} fiber texture which has a decreased tendency with the thickness increasing of Cu thin films. It reveals the competition between the strain energy and surface/interface energy exist in Cu thin films. The microstructure and texture evolution with the thickness of Cu thin films was discussed with the theory of strain energy and surface/interface energy.","PeriodicalId":206237,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 23rd International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits (IPFA)","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123412192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, with the unknown handling activity and environment influence caused by different means of transportation on the incoming chemicals stored typically in drum packaging, tight specifications in terms of various metallic species need to be enforced. These metallic impurities, if not controlled, are then introduced to the device during wafer fabrication especially during wafer cleaning process steps, with the contaminated incoming chemicals. Even trace amounts in metal concentration may alter the device electrical properties at their operating condition or even cause significant degradation over time. The impacts are especially critical on dielectric (gate oxide) quality. Correlation of such impact on device with respect to the metallic concentration level can help in setting references for reasonable specification limits, while not jeopardizing the device characteristics as well as its reliability. In this experiment, contamination levels of 0.1, 0.4, 0.7 and 1.0 parts-per-billion (ppb) are simulated and the impacts are then assessed at device level. Under evaluation are the 10 most common elements encountered namely Al, Ca, Cr, Cu, Fe, Na, Ni, Zn, Co, Mg.","PeriodicalId":206237,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 23rd International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits (IPFA)","volume":"213 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133334327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A series of system diagnosis were conducted to evaluate the overall functional health of these computer systems.
