A semiconductor device is accepted at a stage of its fabrication, at which stage the device includes a diffusion-barrier cap-material (DBCM) layer and an intermetal dielectric layer covering the DBCM layer. The DBCM layer is exposed and it is suitable for removal by an etching procedure in a portion of a pattern contained in the intermetal dielectric layer. A silylation treatment is performed on the semiconductor device prior to the etching procedure for removing the DBCM layer. The intermetal dielectric layer of the completed device has surfaces in contact with metal interconnects and metal vias, and it may have an excess of carbon content near at least a portion of the these surfaces.
摘要:
An encapsulant fluid is provided comprising a mixture of a diene-containing compound and a dienophilic compound. At least one of the diene-containing and the dienophilic compounds is protected so that the compounds do not substantially react with each other at room temperature. The diene-containing and the dienophilic compounds undergo a reversible Diels-Alder polymerization reaction at a polymerization temperature above room temperature to form a solid debondable polymeric encapsulant. Also provided are methods for forming slider assemblies and methods for patterning a slider surface using the encapsulant.
