Methods of fabricating interconnect structures utilizing barrier material layers formed with an electroless deposition technique utilizing a coupling agent complexed with a catalytic metal and structures formed thereby. The fabrication fundamentally comprises providing a dielectric material layer having an opening extending into the dielectric material from a first surface thereof, bonding the coupling agent to the dielectric material within the opening, and electrolessly depositing the barrier material layer, wherein the electrolessly deposited barrier material layer material adheres to the catalytic metal of the coupling agent.
摘要:
A method for forming a semiconductor device is disclosed wherein atomic layer deposition (ALD) precursor species and/or by-product absorbed by an ILD are outgassed and/or neutralized prior to subsequently patterning the semiconductor device, thereby improving the ability to accurately define subsequently formed interconnect structures in the ILD.

A decorative laminate having improved scratch and abrasion resistance is provided. In one embodiment, the decorate laminate includes a substrate or core, a decorative sheet on the substrate, and an overlay sheet on the decorative sheet. The overlay sheet is coated on both major surfaces to provide scratch and abrasion resistance to the laminate. The coating on the interior facing surface contains mineral particles having a particle size of from between about 10-30 microns. The coating on the exterior facing surface contains a mixture of first mineral particles having a particle size of from between about 3-8 microns and second mineral particles having a particle size of less than about 1.0 micron. The first mineral particles are preferably alumina particles, and the second mineral particles are preferably sol gel process alumina particles.

A watering device for providing water to a sub-surface level is provided. The watering device includes a body portion for distributing water radially therefrom and along its length. The watering device includes an irrigation assembly for emitting water from a water source, the irrigation assembly emitting the water within the watering device, and the water then being distributed through the body portion to surrounding soil. The irrigation assembly may be supported by the body portion. The irrigation assembly may include a bubbler, and may include a check valve. The device may include a top cap including retaining structure for providing a generally vertical or other desired orientation to the irrigation assembly. The device may further include a bottom cap that generally restricts the flow of water out of the bottom of the device and cooperates with body portion to direct water radially from the device.
摘要:
Several techniques are described for modulating the etch rate of a sacrificial light absorbing material (SLAM) by altering its composition so that it matches the etch rate of a surrounding dielectric. This is particularly useful in a dual damascene process where the SLAM fills a via opening and is etched along with a surrounding dielectric material to form trenches overlying the via opening.
摘要:
A thermally decomposable sacrificial material is deposited in a void or opening in a dielectric layer on a semiconductor substrate. The thermally decomposable sacrificial material may be removed without damaging or removing the dielectric layer. The thermally decomposable sacrificial material may be a combination of organic and inorganic materials, such as a hydrocarbon-siloxane polymer hybrid.
