Research Abstract |
Grain sizes and their distribution in very narrow Cu wires (≦50nm) have a crucial influence on device performances and reliabilities of LSIs. This is because the average grain size in Cu wires becomes smaller for narrower wires and especially. Very fine grains causes substantial resistivity increase and reliability degradation of Cu wires. In order to reduce resistivity and raise reliability, with the final goal being to enhance LSI performance, we have investigated the purification process of Cu wires using high-purity plating materials and little additives and gotten Cu wires with more than 30% lower resistivity than those made with conventional purity plating materials.
