摘要
Stress was measured in blanket CVD copper films. Tensile stress was detected to be in the range from 200 MPa to 300 MPa. Temperature dependent measurements were carried out to determine thermal stress. It was found to be the major cause of the measured stress. Furthermore multiple measurements were done after deposition to observe the relaxation behaviour. The initial value and the relaxation depends on the underlayer.
