Abstract

ABSTRACTReliability is an important requirement for the newly developed porous low-k ILD materials that are being introduced into (BEOL). Dependence of Young's moduli, as measured by nanoindentation technique, on the environment [such as high relative humidity, water immersion and recovery] is presented along with FT-IR spectra for a number of films with different k values. Effect of the moduli changes on cracking behavior is also discussed.
