  • Abstract
    This paper illustrates the technical advantages and extendibility of low Cu electrolyte for future generation damascene filling. Such improvement stems from many benefits low Cu concentration can provide: (1) stronger polarization, (2) stronger and more uniform adsorption of suppressors, (3) higher solubility of suppressor molecules for better wetting and defect performance, and (4) higher nucleation density.
