Abstract

AbstractWith the miniaturization of silicon ultralarge‐scale integrated circuits (ULSI), the increase in interconnect delay exceeds the delay time of the transistors, and the interconnect begins to control the performance of the entire ULSI chip. To enhance further the speed of ULSI, it is necessary to solve the problem of large‐distance propagation of high‐speed signals in the large‐scale chip. The damascene multilayer interconnect integration technology is an important interconnect technology for achieving large‐scale integration and high speed in ULSI at low cost. CMP technology, Cu electroplating technology, and low‐dielectric‐constant insulating film layers are described as element process technologies required for its implementation. © 2001 Scripta Technica, Electron Comm Jpn Pt 2, 84(4): 26–40, 2001
