    摘要: The present invention relates to methods of improving the fabrication of interconnect structures of the single or dual damascene type, in which there is no problem of hard mask retention or of conductivity between the metal lines after fabrication. The methods of the present invention include at least steps of chemical mechanical polishing and UV exposure or chemical repair treatment which steps improve the reliability of the interconnect structure formed. The present invention also relates to an interconnect structure which include a porous ultra low k dielectric of the SiCOH type in which the surface layer thereof has been modified so as to form a gradient layer that has both a density gradient and a C content gradient.

    摘要: A method of selectively altering material properties of a substrate in one region while making a different alteration of material properties in an adjoining region is provided. The method includes selectively masking a first portion of the substrate during a first exposure and selectively masking a second portion of the substrate during a second exposure. Additionally, a mask may be formed having more than one thickness where each thickness will selectively reduce the amount of energy from a blanket exposure of the substrate thereby allowing a substrate to receive different levels of energy dosage in a single blanket exposure.

    摘要: Deep trenches formed beneath contact level in a semiconductor substrate function as crackstops, in a die area or in a scribe area of the wafer, and may be disposed in rows of increasing distance from a device which they are intended to protect, and may be located under a lattice work crackstop structure in an interconnect stack layer. The deep trenches may remain unfilled, or may be filled with a dielectric material or conductor. The deep trenches may have a depth into the substrate of approximately 1 micron to 100 microns, and a width of approximately 10 nm to 10 microns.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are embodiments of an automated manufacturing system that is used to process multiple jobs in a product fabrication environment, where such processing comprises performing the same multiple consecutive process steps for each job and where each process step can be accomplished using one or more different available processing tools. The manufacturing system incorporates a unique run-time dispatch system. This dispatch system schedules the order in which jobs will be processed and further randomly assigns a particular combination of process steps and tools to each job in such a way that the processing tools are evenly distributed across the jobs. Ensuring even distribution of processing tools allows a statistical process control system to not only detect, for a given process step, product variability outside desired specifications, but also to efficiently de-convolve such product variability.
