ABSTRACT:
An ultra-large scale integrated circuit is manufactured by using silicon-based, low dielectric materials on a wafer in which the hydrophobic nature of the dielectric materials is improved by relative low temperature heating in a vacuum or inert atmosphere, slowly increasing the wafer temperature to the hard bake temperature at a predetermined ramp rate, and heating the wafer at the hard bake temperature for a predetermine amount of time. As a result, the dielectric material can repel wet etch chemicals and minimize the formation of holes in the dielectric materials due to etching by wet etch chemicals.
