    摘要: The present invention relates to the manufacture and use of novel pre-coated abrasive particles and particle slurries for the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of semiconductor wafers, thin films, inter-layer dielectric, metals, and other components during integrated circuit, flat panel display, or MEMS manufacturing. For example, polishing slurry abrasive particles can be pre-coated with additives, such as, inhibitors and/or surfactants during manufacture of the abrasive particles or slurry. The additive's opportunity to react directly with the abrasive particles early in the particle manufacturing process provides a slurry having a more stable, selectable, and predictable ratio of abrasive particles pre-coated with a more stable, selectable, and predictable amount and type of additives.

    摘要: A method of forming and a device including an interconnect structure having a unidirectional electrical conductive material is described. The unidirectional conductive material may overlie interconnect materials, and/or may surround interconnect materials, such as by lining the walls and base of a trench and via. The unidirectional conductive material may be configured to conduct electricity in a direction corresponding to a projection to or from a contact point and conductive material overlying the unidirectional conductive material, but have no substantial electrical conductivity in other directions. Moreover, the unidirectional conductive material may be electrically conductive in a direction normal to a surface over which it is formed or in directions along or across a plane, but have no substantial electrical conductivity in other directions. Finally, the unidirectional conductive material may have properties tending to reduce metal diffusion, reduce electron migration, provide adhesion or bonding, and/or act as an etch stop.

    摘要: Thermally analysis of layers and multiple layer structures used in the semiconductor processing arts is disclosed. A modulated calorimetric analysis may be used to determine a thermal signature that characterizes the chemical properties of a sample of material. The signature may include one or more thermal properties such as heat capacities. The signature may be used to compare and infer the suitability of a material for use in an integrated circuit manufacturing process. A thermal signature for a material that is not known to be suitable for manufacturing integrated circuits may be compared with a thermal signature for a standard material that is known to be suitable in order to determine whether the aforementioned material is suitable. Multiple layer structures may also be analyzed, compared, and inferred, and approaches for determining thermal signatures for any individual layer of the multiple layer structure are disclosed.
