CVD-Ru represents a critically important class of materials for BEOL interconnects that provides Cu reflow capability. The results reported here include superior gap-fill performance, a solution for plausible integration issues, and robust EM / TDDB properties of CVD-Ru / Cu reflow scheme, by iterative optimization of process parameters, understanding of associated Cu void generation mechanism, and reliability failure analysis, thereby demonstrating SRAM operation at 10 nm node logic device and suggesting its use for future BEOL interconnect scheme.
A new synthetic heterodyne laser Doppler interferometer based on homodyne
interferometer is addressed in this work. Interference signal includes the DC offset that is light
intensity. The DC offset must be got rid because it does not need to obtain a velocity. The high pass
filter is used instead of the subtractor. DC offset having random variation is difficult to get rid as using
the subtractor itself. When the vibration amplitude is smaller than at least 1/ 2 of the wavelength of
He-Ne laser, a serious problem of incorrect velocity measurement can be caused since there is
non-zero crossing interference signal whose DC value can be eliminated in using the HPF. In order to
solve this problem of using the HPF in the homodyne interferometer, a synthetic interferometer using
a mechanical modulation method is proposed in this work by exciting a reference mirror with the
displacement larger than the 1/2 of the wavelength. In this work, the analytical work is presented to
show how the synthetic interferometer solves the problem of incorrect velocity measurement using
the Fourier-Bessel function description of the interference signals. Simulation and Experimental
works are also presented to validate the synthetic heterodyne interferometer proposed in the work.
