Abstract
An interconnect structure is disposed on a substrate with a conductive part thereon and includes a first porous low-k layer on the substrate, a damascene structure in the first porous low-k layer, a second porous low-k layer over the first porous low-k layer and the damascene structure, and a first UV cutting layer at least between the first porous low-k layer and the second porous low-k layer. The damascene structure is electrically connected with the conductive part. The UV cutting layer is a UV reflection layer or a UV reflection-absorption layer.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . An interconnect structure, disposed on a substrate with a conductive part thereon and comprising:
a first porous low-k layer on the substrate; a damascene structure in the first porous low-k layer, electrically connected with the conductive part; a second porous low-k layer over the first porous low-k layer and the damascene structure; and a first UV cutting layer at least between the first porous low-k layer and the second porous low-k layer, wherein the UV cutting layer is a UV reflection layer or a UV reflection-absorption layer.
2 . The interconnect structure of claim 1 , wherein the first UV cutting layer is further disposed between the damascene structure and the second porous low-k layer.
3 . The interconnect structure of claim 2 , further comprising an etching stop layer between the first UV cutting layer and the second porous low-k layer.
4 . The interconnect structure of claim 3 , wherein the etching stop layer also serves as a UV reflection layer, a UV absorption layer or a UV reflection-absorption layer.
5 . The interconnect structure of claim 2 , further comprising an etching stop layer disposed on the first porous low-k layer and the damascene structure and under the first UV cutting layer.
6 . The interconnect structure of claim 5 , wherein the etching stop layer also serves as a UV reflection layer, a UV absorption layer or a UV reflection-absorption layer.
7 . The interconnect structure of claim 1 , wherein the damascene structure is disposed in the first UV cutting layer and the first porous low-k layer.
8 . The interconnect structure of claim 7 , further comprising an etching stop layer disposed on the first UV cutting layer and the damascene structure and under the second porous low-k layer.
9 . The interconnect structure of claim 8 , wherein the etching stop layer also serves as a UV reflection layer, a UV absorption layer or a UV reflection-absorption layer.
10 . The interconnect structure of claim 1 , wherein the first UV cutting layer comprises a material selected from nitrogen-containing compounds, carbon-containing compounds and oxygen-containing compounds.
11 . The interconnect structure of claim 10 , wherein the first UV cutting layer as a UV reflection layer comprises UV-SiN.
12 . The interconnect structure of claim 1 , wherein the first UV cutting layer as a UV reflection-absorption layer comprises a composite layer that comprises a UV reflection film and a UV absorption film thereon.
13 . The interconnect structure of claim 1 , wherein the first UV cutting layer as a UV reflection-absorption layer comprises a composite layer that comprises a UV absorption film and a UV reflection film thereon.
14 . The interconnect structure of claim 1 , wherein the first UV cutting layer has a thickness of about 100 Å to about 1000 Å.
15 . The interconnect structure of claim 1 , wherein the substrate excluding the conductive part comprises a porous low-k material, further comprising a second UV cutting layer at least between the porous low-k material and the first porous low-k layer.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
