Electrodeposited tin-zinc alloys are considered promising as lead-free alternatives to solder coatings. Eutectic tin-zinc alloy film was deposited at 2•`3 A/dm2, 25 •Ž, and pH 4 using the following bath composition .
Cooper appears to offer better conductivity and reliability in ULSI metallization than aluminum, and the current research confirms copper potential in this regard.ULSI metallization is accomplished by electrodepositing copper from ethylenediamine complex baths using the additives glycine, ammonium sulfate, and a small quantity of thiodiglycollic acid. These baths produce good throwing powder and fill trenches and contact holes on silicon wafers with giant grains of void-free copper deposits. ULSI metallization using copper produced no voids as are formed due to the absorption of polyethylene glycol in the presence of chloride ions, thus avoiding a major drawback of ULSI metallization.Results of the current research have demonstrated the potential for use of copper in ULSI metallization accomplished through electrodeposition of copper using ethylenediamine complex baths.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
