Pages : 4
Book Description
We report on a collective body of work wherein we have studied the mass transport phenomena which are likely to be operative during stress driven changes in microstructure arising from electromigration and stress voiding. Our goal is to understand such microstructural evolution leading to failure of the metal lines or interconnects associated with integrated electronic circuits or chips. This work, when complete, will lead to improved electronics performance and reliability and faster product development arising from accurate and predictive models of wearout phenomena. We report on the role of thermal induced strain leading to hole and hillock formation, the influence of grains structure on the reliability of Al- based interconnects, and the observation of counter-current electromigration of Ua in Al grain boundaries.

Electromigration in ULSI Interconnections
Author: Cher Ming Tan
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814273325
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Electromigration in ULSI Interconnections provides a comprehensive description of the electromigration in integrated circuits. It is intended for both beginner and advanced readers on electromigration in ULSI interconnections. It begins with the basic knowledge required for a detailed study on electromigration, and examines the various interconnected systems and their evolution employed in integrated circuit technology. The subsequent chapters provide a detailed description of the physics of electromigration in both Al- and Cu-based Interconnections, in the form of theoretical, experimental and numerical modeling studies. The differences in the electromigration of Al- and Cu-based interconnections and the corresponding underlying physical mechanisms for these differences are explained. The test structures, testing methodology, failure analysis methodology and statistical analysis of the test data for the experimental studies on electromigration are presented in a concise and rigorous manner. Methods of numerical modeling for the interconnect electromigration and their applications to the understanding of electromigration physics are described in detail with the aspects of material properties, interconnection design, and interconnect process parameters on the electromigration performances of interconnects in ULSI further elaborated upon. Finally, the extension of the studies to narrow interconnections is introduced, and future challenges on the study of electromigration are outlined and discussed.
