    Abstract: A structure/method for reducing the stress between a dielectric, passivation layer and a metallic structure comprising coating the metallic structure with a low stress modulus buffer material, and forming the dielectric passivation layer covering the low stress modulus buffer material. The low stress modulus buffer material is composed of a layer of a polymeric material selected from at least one of the group consisting of a hydrogen/alkane SQ (SilsesQuioxane) resin, polyimide, and a polymer resin. The dielectric, passivation layer is composed of at least one layer of a material selected from at least one of the group consisting of silicon oxide and silicon nitride. A protective layer is formed over the dielectric, passivation layer. The low stress modulus buffer material has a thermal coefficient of expansion between that of the metallic structure and that of the dielectric passivation layer. In particular, the dielectric passivation layer between the metallic structure and the low stress modulus buffer material has a thermal coefficient of expansion between about 5ppm/ DEG C and about 20ppm/ DEG C.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for depositing a metal layer on an interconnect structure for a semiconductor wafer. In the method, a metal conductor is covered by a capping layer and a dielectric layer. The dielectric layer is patterned so as to expose the capping layer. The capping layer is then sputter etched to remove the capping layer and expose the metal conductor. In the process of sputter etching, the capping layer is redeposited onto the sidewall of the pattern. Lastly, at least one layer is deposited into the pattern and covers the redeposited capping layer.
