Abstract :
Planar capacitors can quickly test material properties of metals and dielectrics for interconnects. A sidewall capacitor device is used to evaluate metal thin-film barriers. Etch stop planar capacitors in turn can test multi-layer etch stops, exposing differences between leaky and good etch stop films. Fillable planar capacitors are also fabricated and results presented for that class of fill materials.
