  • Abstract
    As device interconnects continue to scale, copper metallization and low dielectric constant materials will begin as soon as the 180 nm technology. The damascene approach with either CVD or PVD conformal coverage of good diffusion barrier layers, enhanced filling of Cu by CVD or electroplating as well as chemical-mechanical polishing of low-k material and Cu may be required to achieve high-level integration.
