Abstract: A system for interconnecting a set of device chips by means of an array of microjoints disposed on an interconnect carrier is taught. The carrier is provided with a dense array of microjoint receptacles with an adhesion layer, barrier layer and a noble metal layer; the device wafers are fabricated with an array of microjoining pads including an adhesion layer, barrier layer and a fusible solder layer with pads being located at matching locations in reference to the barrier receptacles; the device chips are joined to the carrier through the microjoint arrays resulting in interconnections capable of very high input/output density and inter-chip wiring density.

Abstract: A permanent protective hardmask 40 protects the dielectric properties of a main bulk dielectric layer 30 having a desirably low dielectric constant in a semiconductor device from undesirable increases in the dielectric constant, undesirable increases in current leakage, and low device yield from surface scratching during subsequent processing steps. The protective hardmask 40 further includes a single layer 50 or dual layer 50,60 sacrificial hardmask particularly useful when interconnect structures such as via openings and/or lines are formed in the low dielectric material during the course of making the final product. The sacrificial hardmask layers 50,60 and the permanent hardmask layer 40 may be formed in a single step from a same precursor wherein process conditions are altered to provide films of differing dielectric constants. Most preferably, a dual damascene structure has a tri-layer hardmask comprising silicon carbide, PECVD silicon nitride, and PECVD silicon dioxide, respectively, formed over a bulk low dielectric constant interlevel dielectric prior to forming the interconnect structures in the interlevel dielectric. The protective hardmask 40 has a low dielectric constant k which may be the same or similar to that of the bulk dielectric layer 30.

Abstract: A semiconductor device containing a diffusion barrier layer is provided. The semiconductor device includes at least a semiconductor substrate containing conductive metal elements; and, a diffusion layer applied to at least a portion of the substrate in contact with the conductive metal elements, the diffusion barrier layer having an upper surface and a lower surface and a central portion, and being formed from silicon, carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen with the nitrogen being non-uniformly distributed throughout the diffusion barrier layer. Thus, the nitrogen is more concentrated near the lower and upper surfaces of the diffusion barrier layer as compared to the central portion of the diffusion barrier layer. Methods for making the semiconductor devices are also provided.

Abstract: An interconnection structure suitable for the connection of microelectronic circuit chips to packages is provided by this invention. In particular, the invention pertains to the area-array or flip-chip technology often called C4 (controlled collapse chip connection). The structure comprises an adhesion/barrier layer deposited on a passivated substrate (e.g., a silicon wafer), optionally an additional adhesion layer, a solderable layer of a metal selected from the group consisting of Ni, Co, Fe, NiFe, NiCo, CoFe, and NiCoFe on the adhesion/barrier layer, and lead free solder ball comprising tin as the predominate component and one or more alloying elements selected from Bi, Ag, and Sb, and further optionally including one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Zn, In, Ni, Co and Cu.

Abstract: A method for forming a porous dielectric material layer (14) in an electronic structure (70) and the stricture (70) formed are disclosed. In the method, a porous dielectric layer (14) in a semiconductor device (70) can be formed by first forming (10) a non-porous dielectric layer (14),- then partially curing (20), patterning (30) by reactive ion etching, and final curing (40) the non-porous dielectric layer (14) at a higher temperature than the partial curing (20) temperature to transform the non-porous dielectric material (14) into a porous dielectric material (14), thus achieving 'a dielectric material that has significantly improved dielectric constant, i.e. smaller than 2.6. The non-porous dielectric material (14) may be formed by embedding a thermally stable dielectric material such as methyl silsesquioxane, hydrogen silsesquioxane, benzocyclobutene or aromatic thermoset polymers with a second phase polymeric material therein such that, at the higher curing temperature, the second phase polymeric material substantially volatilizes to leave voids behind forming a void-filled dielectric material.
