8 Metalization Aluminum widely used for interconnect Copper often replacing aluminum in recent processes Must not exceed maximum current density around 1ma/u for aluminum and copper Ohmic Drop must be managed Parasitic Capacitances must be managed Interconnects from high to low level metals require connections to each level of metal Stacked vias permissible in some processes
9 Metalization Aluminum Aluminum is usually deposited uniformly over entire surface and etched to remove unwanted aluminum Mask is used to define area in photoresist where aluminum is to be removed Copper Plasma etches not effective at removing copper because of absence of volatile copper compounds Barrier metal layers needed to isolate silicon from migration of copper atoms Damascene or Dual-Damascene processes used to pattern copper

46 Resistance in Interconnects B W D A H L R L A ρ D R B A=HW ρ independent of geometry and characteristic of the process
47 Resistance in Interconnects B W D A H H << W and H << L in most processes Interconnect behaves as a thin film Sheet resistance often used instead of conductivity to characterize film R =ρ/h R=R [L / W] R L L A ρ L W ρ H
48 Resistance in Interconnects W L R=R [L / W] The Number of Squares approach to resistance determination in thin films N S = 21 L / W=21 R=R N S
