Abstract
The solution of the 1D heat equation gives the self-heating temperature trajectories in ULSI interconnect networks. The method, implemented in an existing electromigration reliability verification code, requires virtually no incremental computational resources. Its accuracy is comparable to 3D finite element modelling for interconnects embedded in either SiO2 or low-k dielectrics.
