Abstract

See full text

A barrier limits the diffusion of a metal, such as copper, into an insulating layer. The barrier may take the form of insulating layer made of a silicon carbide type material which has been exposed to ionised hydrogen subsequent to deposition. Preferably the material contains nitrogen and it is particularly preferred that the material has a dielectric constant of 3.5 or less.
