    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for minimizing breakage of wafers during or after a wafer thinning process. A method of forming a rounded edge to the portion of a wafer remaining after surface grinding process is provided. The method comprises providing a semiconductor wafer having an edge and forming a recess in the edge of the wafer using any suitable mechanical or chemical process. The method further comprises forming a substantially continuous curved shape for at least the edge of the wafer located above the recess. Advantageously, the shape of the wafer is formed prior to the backside grind process to prevent problems caused by the otherwise presence of a sharp edge during the backside grind process.

    摘要: Method of forming wires in integrated circuits. The methods include forming a wire in a first dielectric layer on a substrate; forming a dielectric barrier layer over the wire and the first dielectric layer; forming a second dielectric layer over the barrier layer; forming one or more patterned photoresist layers over the second dielectric layer; performing a reactive ion etch to etch a trench through the second dielectric layer and not through the barrier layer; performing a second reactive ion etch to extend the trench through the barrier layer; and after performing the second reaction ion etch, removing the one or more patterned photoresist layers, a last formed patterned photoresist layer removed using a reducing plasma or a non-oxidizing plasma. The methods include forming wires by similar methods to a metal-insulator-metal capacitor.

    摘要: Improved mechanical and adhesive strength and resistance to breakage of copper integrated circuit interconnections is obtained by forming a copper alloy in a copper via/wiring connection in an integrated circuit while minimizing adverse electrical effects of the alloy by confining the alloy to an interfacial region of said via/wiring connection and not elsewhere by a barrier which reduces or substantially eliminates the thickness of alloy in the conduction path. The alloy location and composition are further stabilized by reaction of all available alloying material with copper, copper alloys or other metals and their alloys.
