Low Dielectric Constant Materials for ULSI Interconnects

Morgen, Michael, Ryan, E. Todd, Zhao, Jie-Hua, Hu, Chuan, Cho, Taiheui, Ho, Paul S.·2000·Annual Review of Materials Science

Abstract

▪ Abstract As integrated circuit (IC) dimensions continue to decrease, RC delay, crosstalk noise, and power dissipation of the interconnect structure become limiting factors for ultra-large-scale integration of integrated circuits. Materials with low dielectric constant are being developed to replace silicon dioxide as interlevel dielectrics. In this review, the general requirements for process integration and material properties of low-k dielectrics are first discussed. The discussion is focused on the challenge in developing materials with low dielectric constant but strong thermomechanical properties. This is followed by a description of the material characterization techniques, including several recently developed for porous materials. Finally, the material characteristics of candidate low-k dielectrics will be discussed to illustrate their structure-property relations.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
