    摘要: 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: An apparatus and method for forming catalyst particles to grow nanotubes is disclosed. In addition, an apparatus and method for forming nanotubes using the catalytic particles is also disclosed. The particles formed may have different diameters depending upon how they are formed. Once formed, the particles are deposited on a substrate. Once deposited, the mobility of the particles is restricted and nanotubes and/or nanotube portions are grown on the particles. Nanotube portions having different diameters may be formed and the portions may be connected to form nanotubes with different diameters along the length of the nanotube.

    摘要: A multiple stage method of electrolessly depositing a metal layer is presented. This method may have the two main stages of first forming a thin metal layer on a metal surface using an electroless plating solution containing activating agents that are highly reactive reducing agents, and second, forming a bulk metal layer over the thin metal layer by using an electroless plating solution containing mildly reactive reducing agents. Through this two stage method, the use of highly reactive reducing agents that may cause the formation of contaminant particles may be minimized. By minimizing the formation of contaminant particles in the electroless plating solution, the lifetime of the solution may be extended and the current leakage between metal interconnect lines may be reduced.
