    Abstract: A structure useful for electrical interconnection comprises a substrate; a plurality of porous dielectric layers disposed on the substrate; an etch stop layer disposed between a first of the dielectric layers and a second of the dielectric layers; and at least one thin, tough, non-porous dielectric layer disposed between at least one of the porous dielectric layers and the etch stop layer. A method for forming the structure comprising forming a multilayer stack of porous dielectric layers on the substrate, the stack including the plurality of porous dielectric layers, and forming a plurality of patterned metal conductors within the multilayer stack. Curing of the multilayer dielectric stack may be in a single cure step in a furnace. The application and hot plate baking of the individual layers of the multi layer dielectric stack may be accomplished in a single spin-coat tool, without being removed, to fully cure the stack until all dielectric layers have been deposited.

    Abstract: A method and structure for forming an integrated circuit structure is disclosed that forms at least one first layer comprising logical and functional devices and forms at least one interconnection layer above the first layer. The interconnection layer is adapted to form electrical connections between the logical and functional devices. The interconnection layer is made by first forming a dielectric layer. The dielectric layer includes a first material and a second material, wherein the second material is less stable at manufacturing environmental conditions (e.g., the processing conditions discussed below) than the first material. The nullsecond materialnull comprises a porogen and the nullfirst materialnull comprises a matrix polymer. The invention then forms conductive features in the dielectric layer and removes (e.g., by heating) the second material from the dielectric layer to create air pockets in the interconnection layer where the second material was positioned.

    Abstract: An electrical interconnect structure on a substrate, includes a first porous dielectric layer with surface region from which a porogen has been removed; and an etch stop layer disposed upon the first porous dielectric layer so that the etch stop layer extends to partially fill pores in the surface region of the first porous dielectric layer from which the porogen has been removed, thus improving adhesion during subsequent processing. The porogen may be removed from the surface region by heating, and in particular by hot plate baking. A second porous dielectric layer, which may have the same composition as the first porous dielectric layer, may be formed over the etch stop layer. Electrical vias and lines may be formed in the first and second porous dielectric layer, respectively. The layers may be part of a multilayer stack, wherein all of the layers are cured simultaneously in a spin application tool porous dielectric layer.
