摘要
Voltage ramp dielectric breakdown (VRBD) and time-dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) characteristics of similar to 40nm-wide Cu/SiO2 interconnect dielectrics were investigated. The addition of a SiH4 treatment before capping SiN deposition led to more uniform breakdown fields, and better TDDB performance. The integration of a Ti-based barrier resulted in the best uniformity of breakdown fields, and a dramatic enhancement of TDDB reliability. The relationship between the VRBD and the TDDB characteristics was discussed, and the effect of SiH4 treatment was analyzed using TEM.
