Abstract
Two recently developed precursors, AbaCus and Super AbaCus, are evaluated for use in ultralow temperature copper deposition by plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition. Film adhesion, platability, and process window evaluation demonstrate the strong capability of these precursors to overcome current metallization challenges.
