    摘要: An electrical interconnection, which includes a method for fabricating the device, is disclosed. The interconnection comprises two contact surfaces, on at least one of which is disposed at least one solid metal conical projection in predetermined dimension and location. Rather than necessarily being permanently cojoined, the contact surfaces are attachable and detachable when desired. The conical projections on one contact surface make ohmic contact, either by wiping with an intermeshing like structure on a second contact surface or by contacting a second contact surface which is a substantially flat contact pad. An interconnection, in this invention, is the combination of at least one contact having individual conical projections and another contact, optionally having individual conical projections. The conical projections are formed in metal by electrochemical machining in neutral salt solution, optionally in a continuous foil. The conical projections are also optionally formed on the head of a contact pin.

    摘要: The idea of the invention is to coat the free surface of patterned Cu conducting lines in on-chip interconnections (BEOL) wiring by a 1-20 nm thick metal layer prior to deposition of the interlevel dielectric. This coating is sufficiently thin so as to obviate the need for additional planarization by polishing, while providing protection against oxidation and surface, or interface, diffusion of Cu which has been identified by the inventors as the leading contributor to metal line failure by electromigration and thermal stress voiding. Also, the metal layer increases the adhesion strength between the Cu and dielectric so as to further increase lifetime and facilitate process yield. The free surface is a direct result of the CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) in a damascene process or in a dry etching process by which Cu wiring is patterned. It is proposed that the metal capping layer be deposited by a selective process onto the Cu to minimize further processing. We have used electroless metal coatings, such as CoWP, CoSnP and Pd, to illustrate significant reliability benefits, although chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of metals or metal forming compounds can be employed.

    摘要: Improved adhesion of electroless metal deposited on an organic dielectric layer with phase separated morphology is accomplished by the spontaneous formation of a morphologically and topographically rough surface. In one embodiment a ternary solution of a polar solvent and two polymer precursors of the same polymer which are separable in two phases of different order are cast in film on a substrate and heated to form two phases of different order to spontaneously produce a rough surface. Upon exposure to an alkaline solution, one phase is etched at a faster rate than the other. Seeding and electroless deposition of a metal on the rough surface results in improved adhesion of the metal to the dielectric layer. In a second embodiment a quaternary solution of a polar solvent, a seeding agent, two polymer precursors of the same polymer which are separable in two phases of different order are cast in a thin film on a substrate and heated to form three phases. Upon curing the precursors there is surface roughening as a result of phase separation. Upon exposure to alkaline solution there is etching of one of the polymer phases at a faster rate and simultaneous opening of the seeding colloid. The rough surface is overcoated with a photoresist, exposed and developed. Subsequent electroless metal deposition results in improved metal to dielectric layer adhesion. The method is applicable to selective deposition of electroless copper onto a polyimide layer.

The substrate surface is seeded to render it active for electroless plating thereon; and then a metal from an electroless plating bath is plated thereon.In another method, the dielectric substrate is seeded to render it active for electroless plating thereon. A metal is then plated thereon from an electroless plating bath. The plated metal is subjected to temperature of at least about 100 .degree. C. for a time sufficient to increase the adhesion of the metal to the substrate.
