Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 材料科學(工程)研究所 === 82 === The phosphours wt% of APCVD PSG, which is used as the passivation-1, and the exposure time in air after deposition could make a great influence on stress-induced metal voiding of Al-1%Si lines after alloy. The water absorption in APCVD PSG film gives rise to a compressive stress . The APCVD PSG with 4wt% phosphours content has the most stress change from tension to compression during storage in air . This stress change will induce the metal viods on Al-1%Si lines. Further- more, the passivation local convex bending surrounding the metal line is observed for the APCVD PSG containing lower phosphours after alloy. The X-ray diffraction shows the Al- 1% Si film release its strain by metal voiding. The stress change and local convex bending of the APCVD PSG film could explain why the passivation induces the metal voids on Al-1% Si line after alloy. If Al-1%Si is replaced by Al-1%Si-0.5% Cu, the metal voids are inhibited . It is because the Al-1% Si-0.5%Cu film has more resistance to stress-induced metal voiding.On the other hand,to shorten the exposure time to air or to store in dry N2 ambient after APCVD PSG deposition can reduced the stress-induced metal voiding.
