    摘要: Often used to reduce the RC delay in integrated circuits are dielectric films of porous organosilicates which have a silica like backbone with alkyl or aryl groups (to add hydrophobicity to the materials and create free volume) attached directly to the Si atoms in the network. Si—R bonds rarely survive an exposure to plasmas or chemical treatments commonly used in processing; this is especially the case in materials with an open cell pore structure. When Si—R bonds are broken, the materials lose hydrophobicity, due to formation of hydrophilic silanols and low dielectric constant is compromised. A method by which the hydrophobicity of the materials is recovered using a novel class of silylation agents which may have the general formula (R2N)XSiR′Y where X and Y are integers from 1 to 3 and 3 to 1 respectively, and where R and R′ are selected from the group of hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, allyl and a vinyl moiety. Mechanical strength of porous organosilicates is also improved as a result of the silylation treatment.

    摘要: A method for fabricating a low k, ultra-low k, and extreme-low k multilayer interconnect structure on a substrate in which the interconnect line features are separated laterally by a dielectric with vertically oriented nano-scale voids formed by perforating it using sub-optical lithography patterning and etching techniques and closing off the tops of the perforations by a dielectric deposition step. The lines are supported either by solid or patterned dielectric features underneath. The method avoids the issues associated with the formation of air gaps after the fabrication of conductor patterns and those associated with the integration of conventional low k, ultra-low k and extreme low k dielectrics which have porosity present before the formation of the interconnect patterns.

    摘要: A method of forming a self aligned pattern on an existing pattern on a substrate including applying a coating of a solution containing a masking material in a carrier, the masking material being either photo or thermally sensitive; performing a blanket exposure of the substrate; and allowing at least a portion of the masking material to preferentially develop in a fashion that replicates the existing pattern of the substrate. The existing pattern includes a first set of regions of the substrate having a first reflectivity and a second set of regions of the substrate having a second reflectivity different from the first composition. The first set of regions can include one or more metal elements and the second set of regions can include one or more dielectrics. Structures made in accordance with the method. A low resolution mask is used to block out regions over the substrate. Additionally, the resist can be applied over another masking layer that contains a separate pattern.
