ABSTRACT:
A trench and via structure is formed in a low k dielectric layer (100) formed over a silicon substrate (10). Super critical CO2and a first silylization agent are used to form a chemically bonded high density surface layer (160). Silanol species are removed from the low k dielectric layer (100) using super critical CO2and a second silylization agent. A barrier layer (190) and copper (200) are used to fill the trench and via structure.
