ABSTRACT:
Contact metallurgy is disclosed for passivated semiconductor devices. The metallurgy comprises a compressively stressed, oxygen-containing titanium underlayer covered by a solder-bondable layer extending through via holes in dielectric material on the semiconductor device. The solder bondable layer is either nickel or ruthenium, where lower current densities are encountered or a composite of layers of copper, titanium, copper and gold for higher current densities.
