摘要:
A colloidal suspension of nanoparticles composed of a dense material dispersed in a solvent is used in forming a gap-filling dielectric material with low thermal shrinkage. The dielectric material is particularly useful for pre-metal dielectric and shallow trench isolation applications. According to the methods of forming a dielectric material, the colloidal suspension is deposited on a substrate and dried to form a porous intermediate layer. The intermediate layer is modified by infiltration with a liquid phase matrix material, such as a spin-on polymer, followed by curing, by infiltration with a gas phase matrix material, followed by curing, or by curing alone, to provide a gap-filling, thermally stable, etch resistant dielectric material.
摘要:
Nanoporous materials are fabricated from polymers having backbones with reactive groups used in crosslinking. In one aspect of preferred methods and compositions, the reactive groups in the backbone comprise a diene and a dienophile. The diene may advantageously comprise a tetracyclone, and the dienophile may advantageously comprise an ethynyl. In another aspect of preferred methods and compositions, the reactive groups in the backbone are included in a conjugated system. Especially preferred polymeric strands comprise a poly(arylene ether) synthesized from a difluoroaromatic portion and an aromatic bisphenolic portion. It is still more preferred that the difluoroaromatic portions of the poly(arylene ether) are modified in such a way that some difluoroaromatic portions carry a thermolabile portion. In still other aspects crosslinking may advantageously occur without reliance on an exogenous crosslinker.
摘要:
Nanoporous low dielectric constant materials are fabricated from a first reagent and a second reagent. The reagents are mixed to give a reagent mixture and a polymeric structure is formed from the reagent mixture. Nanosized voids are created by removing at least in part the second reagent from the polymeric structure by a method other than thermolysis, and other than evaporation.
