摘要：

Porogen residue (sp(2) hybridized carbon) formed during UV curing of low-k materials increases leakage current and decreases breakdown voltage of low-k materials. The amount of porogen residue increases with increasing porosity of PECVD low-k films because of larger amount of co-deposited porogen. Electrical characteristics of PECVD ultra low-k films are significantly worse in comparison with CVD and SOG low-k film prepared without porogen. SOG low-k films prepared by self-assembling of nanocrystalline silica demonstrate very low leakage current. Removal of porogen residue significantly improves the electrical characteristics. Therefore, preparation of porogen residue free low-k films is an important challenge of future scaling of low-k materials. (c) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
