Simulation of Cross-Sectional Nanoindentation in Interconnect Structures with Cohesive Elements

  • Conference paper
Fracture of Nano and Engineering Materials and Structures

Abstract

The thermo-mechanical robustness of interconnect structures is a key reliability concern for integrated circuits. The miniaturization process and the package/silicon interaction result in an increase of the thermal stresses whilst new low-k materials with degraded mechanical properties are used, increasing the likelihood of adhesion failure in the interconnect structures.
