Abstract

In order to get more higher integration density of devices, it is getting to be used more and more micro via interconnection lines for interconnecting layers or devices. However, it is very important to enhance the electrical characteristic by reducing the electrical resistivity of micro via interconnection line because it affects the reliability of packaging. In this paper, Micro vias were patterned with a diameter from 10 to 100 um by increasing the step of 10 um and 100 um height and were fabricated by micromachining technology to investigate the electrical characteristic of micro via interconnection lines. These micro vias were filled with copper by electroplating process with appling pulse current mode. And the electrical characteristics of micro via interconnection lines were measured. The measured value of electrical resistivity shows with a range from 20 to $26\;m{\Omega}$. This value from micro via interconnection lines fabricated by pulse current mode electroplating process shows better result than the resistivity from than micro via interconnection lines fabricated by DC mode ($31\;m{\Omega}$).
