Abstract

Selective protection of the porosity can be implemented in porous materials processing by using an organic polymer fill. This strategy is employed to protect ultralow-k (ULK) materials during patterning of 250-nm lines and spaces. Structures with significantly less sidewall and trench bottom damage are obtained, proving the potential of this novel approach in materials science.
