Distinct morphologies of electromigration-induced voids and failures are shown for Al, Al-2%Cu, and Al-2%Cu-l% Si narrow (1–6
μm) unpassivated thin film conductors. SEM and TEM images typically show large non-fatal voids and narrow slit-like open circuit
failures for all film conditions and accelerated test conditions. Evidence for transgran-ular slit failures is shown for 1.33
μm wide conductors. A simple model for void growth is presented which accounts for the void morphologies seen. The observed
morphologies and the results of void growth modelling suggest that slit voids nucleate after other voids and rapidly produce
failure. These conclusions are discussed in terms of ‘classical’ models for electromigration failure processes and resistance
and noise power monitoring techniques. 相似文献

As IC devices scale down to the submicron level, the resistance-capacitance (RC) time delays are the limitation to circuit
speed. A solution is to use low dielectric constant materials and low resistivity materials. In this work, the influence of
underlying barrier Ta on the electromigration (EM) of Cu on hydrogen silsesquioxane (HSQ) and SiO2 substrates was investigated. The presence of a Ta barrier not only improves the adhesion between Cu and dielectrics, but
also enhances the crystallinity of Cu film and improves the Cu electromigration resistance. The activation energy obtained
suggests a grain boundary migration mechanism and the current exponent calculated indicates the Joule heating effect. 相似文献
