- W2066333430 abstract "Copper (Cu) has been extensively used as an interconnect material for microelectronic devices because of its high electrical and thermal conductivity and excellent electromigration resistance. However, the formation of relatively rough Cu surfaces ( approximately 5 nm roughness) and Cu-oxide layers upon exposure to air still hinders their reliable application in a wide range of fields. In this article, we show the potential values of highly stable and ultrasmooth polycrystalline bare Cu obtained by simple annealing and chemical modification for a wide range of Cu-based electronic devices. The morphological properties and oxidation behavior of annealed Cu surfaces, before and after coating by self-assembled monolayers of terephthalic acid (TPA), were examined upon exposure to ambient air conditions ( approximately 110 days). Thin films of polycrystalline Cu, deposited on top of an adhesion layer of tantalum nitride (TaN) and annealed for 8 h at 580 degrees C under 2 x 10(-7) Torr, provided ultrasmooth Cu surfaces (R(rms) = 0.15-1.1 nm for fresh samples) and had a stable Cu-oxide layer after 65 days ( approximately 3.5 nm). These observations were perceived to be superior to nonannealed polycrystalline Cu samples. Coating fresh (oxide-free) samples of ultrasmooth Cu with TPA molecules created a closely packed monolayer with a standing-up phase configuration and molecular coverage of approximately 90%. The TPA-coated Cu surface has not shown any detectable oxidation during the first 2 weeks of exposure. The protection efficiency of this layer was found to be superior to those reported earlier on polycrystalline Cu surfaces. The oxidation mechanisms of both annealed and nonannealed Cu surfaces are presented and discussed." @default.
