Comparative Study of Low Dielectric Constant Material Deposited Using Different Precursors

Article Preview

Abstract:

Two kinds of organosilicate precursors, trimethylsilane (3MS) and diethoxymethylsilane (DEMS), were used to produce low-k films by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) in this work. The experimental results indicate that DEMS-based low-k films have superior electrical performance and better thermal stability as compared to 3MS-based low-k films. Therefore, DEMS-based films are the promising low-k materials which can be integrated in very large scale integration circuit as an inter-layer dielectric material.
