Title:
COPPER INTERCONNECTION OF METAL SEED LAYER INSERTION STRUCTURE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3121589
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an interconnected structure of copper alloys having improved electromigration resistance force, adhesion and other surface characteristics.
SOLUTION: Copper conductor bodies 56 and 60 and a copper alloy or metal seed layer 76 disposed between the copper conductor bodies and an electronic device are utilized to provide a novel interconnected structure for establishing electrical communication with the electronic device. In order to improve the electromigration resistance force, an adhesion property to a barrier layer, device surface characteristics or an adhesion process, copper-based seed layers of various decompositions or a specific metal seed layer can be used according to each purpose.
