description The impact of line-edge roughness (LER) on resistance R and capacitance C of on-chip interconnects is for the first time evaluated by a simulation methodology based on a realistic modeling of LER. The model can be calibrated with measured LER parameters. A geometrical approximations of LER is generated and superimposed to an interconnect architecture model with no roughness; resistance and capacitance are extracted from the model by a 3D static solver to estimate the impact of LER on them. By applying this methodology to the interconnect scaling scenario of the 2005 ITRS Roadmap, a small but increasing detrimental effect of LER on both R and C is predicted.
