Journal ArticleDOI
Electromigration-induced stress in aluminum conductor lines measured by x-ray microdiffraction
TL;DR: In this paper, a steady-state linear stress gradient along the length of the line developed within the first few hours of electromigration and that the stress gradient could be manipulated by controlling the magnitude and the direction of the current flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electromigration threshold in copper interconnects
TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified Blech electromigration model was proposed to analyze the experimental data from various combinations of current density and interconnect length, as well as to estimate the electromigration threshold product of current densities and line lengths at a certain temperature.

TL;DR: The paper reviews the process development and integration methodology, presents the device characteristics, and shows how the development and device selection were geared toward usage in mixed-signal IC development.

Process of enclosing via for improved reliability in dual damascene interconnects
TL;DR: In this paper, a dual damascene process was proposed to enclose a via in a dual-damascene fashion. But the barrier metal or liner encloses the via, thereby reducing void formation due to electromigration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of “Ultrathin-Cu”/Ru(Ta)/TaN Liner Stack for Copper Interconnects
TL;DR: In this article, the feasibility of a TaN diffusion barrier with ultrathin-Cu/Ru(Ta) liner layers was evaluated for back-end-of-the-line Cu/low-k interconnects.
