SURFACE PRETREATMENT FOR ELECTROPLATING NANOTWINNED COPPER

Nanotwinned copper and non-nanotwinned copper may be electroplated to form mixed crystal structures such as 2-in-1 copper via and RDL structures or 2-in-1 copper via and pillar structures. Nanotwinned copper may be electroplated on a non-nanotwinned copper layer by pretreating a surface of the non-n...

Zusammenfassung:Nanotwinned copper and non-nanotwinned copper may be electroplated to form mixed crystal structures such as 2-in-1 copper via and RDL structures or 2-in-1 copper via and pillar structures. Nanotwinned copper may be electroplated on a non-nanotwinned copper layer by pretreating a surface of the non-nanotwinned copper layer with an oxidizing agent or other chemical reagent. Alternatively, nanotwinned copper may be electroplated to partially fill a recess in a dielectric layer, and non-nanotwinned copper may be electroplated over the nanotwinned copper to fill the recess. Copper overburden may be subsequently removed.
