Abstract

This study introduces Electro-chemical Mechanical Deposition(ECMD) lot making Cu interconnect. ECMD is a novel technique that has ability to deposit planar conductive films on non-planar substrate surfaces. Technique involves electrochemical deposition(ECD) and mechanical sweeping of the substrate surface Preferential deposition into the cavities on the substrate surface nay be achieved through two difference mechanisms. The first mechanism is more chemical and essential. It involves enhancing deposition into the cavities where mechanical sweeping does not reach. The second mechanism involves reducing deposition onto surface that is swept. In this study, we demonstrate ECMD process and characteristic. We proceeded this experiment by changing of distribution of current density on divided water area zones and use different pad types.
