Abstract :
Porosity and pore size of siloxane-based porous spin-on-glass (SOG) thin films are comparatively studied with different non-destructive methods and also with reference to nitrogen porosimetry. The pore size and its spread are found to increase with increasing porosity, or with decreasing dielectric constant.
