    摘要: Example embodiments of a structure and method for forming a copper interconnect having a doped region near a top surface. The doped region has implanted alloying elements that block grain boundaries and reduce stress and electro migration. In a first example embodiment, the barrier layer is left over the inter metal dielectric layer during the alloying element implant. The barrier layer is later removed with a planarization process. In a second example embodiment the barrier layer is removed before the alloying element implant and a hard mask blocks the alloying element from being implanted in the inter metal dielectric layer.

    摘要: A structure and method of a semiconductor device with liner air gaps next to interconnects and dielectric layers. A dielectric layer is formed over a lower dielectric layer and a lower interconnect over a substrate. We form an interconnect opening in the dielectric layer. The opening has sidewalls of the dielectric layer. A sacrificial liner is formed over the sidewalls of the interconnect opening. An upper interconnect is formed that fills the opening. We remove the sacrificial liner/spacers to form (air) liner gaps.

    摘要: An interconnect structure and method thereof comprising: a interconnect and a compound cap layer. The interconnect has a compound cap layer thereover. The interconnect is preferably comprised of copper. The compound cap layer is preferably comprised of a copper-metal (Cu-Me) compound or a metal; and is more preferably comprised of a Cu—Sn compound or Ni metal. A dielectric cap layer is formed over the compound cap layer. The compound cap layer can provide a barrier capping effect to the Cu to minimize the out-diffusion of Cu and therefore improve the electro-migration performance of Cu. The compound cap layer has excellent adhesion to dielectric cap layers, especially SiN and SiC dielectric cap layers.

    摘要: A drive unit for dish washing machines includes a flow channel housing, a filter housing and an arm holder, which are thermally fused to one another to form an integral unit. Consequently, assembly of the drive unit is simplified, leakage of wash water is prevented, and pumping performance is increased. Also, the flow channel housing, the filter housing and the arm holder are concurrently fixed to a pump housing of the drive unit by fixing members. Consequently, the assembly process of the drive unit is simplified, and the coupling force between the components of the drive unit is increased.
