Moreover, multi-core systems exhibit better tolerance to interconnect variations due to their short-wire architecture - as much as a 35% reduction for the maximum critical path delay mean degradation and standard deviation is observed for the year 2020 with a 14 nm half-pitch.","PeriodicalId":403602,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Interconnect Technology Conferencee","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127255806","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}

However, with the combination of VRDB and TDDB, a more comprehensive reliability assessment of low- k dielectric breakdown could be achieved.

This phenomenon already enhanced by several factors (e.g. mechanical polishing action, solid content in the slurry, pH of the slurry solution, presence of organic residues, etc ...) extends to bulk hydrophilisation when polishing metal/ULK systems. The degree of bulk hydrophilisation depends on the nature of the selected metal/low-k combination, the metal being either a hard mask (for low damage patterning purposes) or a Cu diffusion barrier. The phenomenon is more or less pronounced depending on the nature of the overlaying metal film (Ta>TaN>Ti>TiN). It also correlates with the post CMP defects generation and more specifically with the presence of scratches with depths ranging from ~178 nm down to ~6 nm as measured with a 0.19 mum tip depending on the metallic layer. These scratches can be reduced in number and depth by overpolishing leading thereby to reduced hydrophilicity. Besides selecting properly the overlaying metal film, UV curing the ULK for mechanical properties improvement and/or engineering the metal/ULK interface by inserting an ultra-thin dielectric layer with higher mechanical properties to prevent the metal from contacting the low-k surface significantly limits the direct CMP-induced bulk hydrophylisation.","PeriodicalId":403602,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Interconnect Technology Conferencee","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133277328","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}

More than 90% yield for wiring and via-chain was obtained. 70% reduction in via resistance was confirmed compared with the conventional process. To estimate the moisture resistance property of self-formed barrier, via resistance change was measured with dummy density pattern. As the result, it was found that the resistance change ratio of via for self-formed barrier does not depend on the dummy density, probably due to the high moisture resistance property of self-formed oxide barrier.
