Process scheme to form controlled airgaps between interconnect lines to reduce capacitance
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-step high density plasma (HDP) chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process is used to form the silicon dioxide dielectric layer with the controlled airgaps.

Damascene integration of copper and ultra-low-k xerogel for high performance interconnects
Eden Zielinski,Stephen W. Russell,Richard S. List,A.M. Wilson,Changming Jin,K.J. Newton,J.P. Lu,Trace Hurd,Wei-Yung Hsu,V. T. Cordasco,M. Gopikanth,V. Korthuis,Wei William Lee,G. Cerny,N.M. Russell,P.B. Smith,Robert H. Havemann +16 more
TL;DR: Copper has been successfully integrated in ultra-low k xerogel in a damascene structure as discussed by the authors, where resistance was shown to decrease by 30% with lower capacitance, relative to an aluminum/oxide baseline.

Improvements in or relating to porous dielectric structures
Robert H. Havemann,Changming Jin,Wei William Lee,Richard S. List,Jiong-Ping Lu,Stephen W. Russell,Kelly J. Taylor +6 more
TL;DR: A surface treatment for porous silica to enhance adhesion of overlying layers is described in this article, which includes surface groupsubstitution, pore collapse, and gap filling layer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overview Of Process Integration Issues For Low K Dielectrics
Robert H. Havemann,Manoj K. Jain,Richard S. List,A. R. Ralston,Wei-Yan Shih,Changming Jin,Mi-Chang Chang,Eden Zielinski,Girish A. Dixit,Abha Singh,Stephen W. Russell,J. F. Gaynor,Andrew J. McKerrow,Wei William Lee +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized the process integration and reliability issues associated with the use of novel low k materials in multilevel interconnects, and highlighted the importance of reducing parasitic capacitance to manage crosstalk, power dissipation and RC delay.
Patent
Porous integrated circuit dielectric with decreased surface porosity
TL;DR: A surface treatment for porous silica to enhance adhesion of overlying layers is described in this paper, which includes surface group substitution, pore collapse, and gap filling layer which invades open surface pores of xerogel.
