摘要:By moderately introducing defects into a highly conductive material, such as
copper, the resistance versus temperature behavior may be significantly modified so thatenhanced electromigration behavior and/or electrical performance may be obtained inmetallization structures of advanced semiconductor devices. The defect-related portionof the resistance may be moderately increased so as to change the slope of theresistance versus temperature curve, thereby allowing the incorporation of impurityatoms for enhancing the electromigration endurance while not unduly increasing theoverall resistance at the operating temperature or even reducing the correspondingresistance at the specified operating temperature. Thus, by appropriately designing theelectrical resistance for a target operating temperature, both the electromigrationbehavior and the electrical performance may be enhanced.
