Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Electrical Engineering
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Electrical interconnects are critical components in integrated circuits.
  • Improving current-carrying capacity and reducing resistivity are key challenges for advanced microelectronics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To fabricate and characterize novel Cu/graphite bishell composite interconnects.
  • To evaluate the performance enhancement offered by a graphite cap layer grown via electron cyclotron resonance chemical vapor deposition (ECR-CVD).

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of Cu/graphite bishell composite test lines.
  • Growth of conformal multilayer graphene on copper interconnects using ECR-CVD at 400 °C.
  • Characterization using Raman spectroscopy and current-voltage (I-V) measurements up to breakdown.

Main Results:

  • Achieved a current-carrying capacity of 10^8 A/cm^2, an order of magnitude higher than bare metal lines.
  • Reduced resistivity of fine test lines by approximately 10%.
  • Determined physical breakdown occurs between 680-720 °C, limited by graphite self-heating.

Conclusions:

  • The Cu/graphite composite demonstrates superior electrical performance compared to traditional interconnects.
  • The ECR-CVD method offers a scalable, CMOS-friendly approach for fabricating advanced interconnect materials.
  • Enhanced thermal dissipation via the metal counterpart is crucial for high-field performance.
