    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for bonding structures of a circuit device with a monolayer. In an embodiment, a patterned metallization layer or a first dielectric layer includes a first surface portion. The first surface portion is exposed to first molecules which each include a first head group and a first end group which is substantially non-reactive with the first head group. The first head groups attach to the first portion to form a first self-assembled monolayer, which is subsequently reacted with second molecules to form a second monolayer comprising moieties of the first molecules. In another embodiment, the first head group comprises a first moiety comprising a sulfur atom or a nitrogen atom, where the first end group comprises one of an acid moiety, an acid anhydride moiety, an aliphatic alcohol moiety, an aromatic alcohol moiety, or an unsaturated hydrocarbon moiety.

    Abstract: Described herein are devices and techniques for measuring a thickness of a surface layer. A device can include a detector, a processor, and a memory. The detector can be arranged to receive reflected light from a surface of a sample. The processor can be in electrical communication with the detector. The memory can store instructions that, when executed by the processor, can cause the processor to perform operations. The operations can include receiving optical data from the detector, determining a polarization change of the reflected light, the polarization change being a function of the optical data, and determining a thickness of the surface layer using the polarization change and the wavelength of the incident light. The optical data can include information regarding the phase difference of the reflected light and the incident light. Also described are other embodiments.
