Abstract

We have applied a temperature-ramp resistance analysis to investigate electromigration effects in unpassivated Al-Si/Ta multilayer structures. The results are compared to the behaviour previously observed in Al-Si/Ti interconnects. For comparison, single layer Al-Si metallizations were also studied.
