  • Publication number: 20040063895
    Abstract: Novel poly-o-hydroxyamides can be cyclized to give polybenzoxazoles which have a good diffusion barrier effect with respect to metals. The poly-o-hydroxyamides can be applied to a semiconductor substrate by customary techniques and converted into the polybenzoxazole in a simple manner by heating. This results in a good barrier layer with respect to diffusion of metals. This allows the diffusion barrier between conductor track and dielectric to be substantially dispensed.

  • Publication number: 20040028821
    Abstract: Poly-o-hydroxyamides include binaphthyl substituents as repeating units. The poly-o-hydroxyamides can be cyclized to give the polybenzoxazole by heating. Pore formation occurs, so that a dielectric having a very low dielectric constant k of less than 2.5 is obtained.

  • Publication number: 20030176623
    Abstract: Poly-o-hydroxyamides are cyclicized to obtain polybenzoxazoles. The poly-o-hydroxyamides provide effective filling of trenches. In particular, the poly-o-hydroxyamides can fill trenches having a width of less than 100 nm and an aspect ratio of more than 4. Further, the polybenzoxazoles of the invention are very suitable for the damascene process. A dielectric can be made from the polybenzoxazole. In turn, semiconductor devices can include the dieletric. Processes for making the poly-o-hydroxyamides, polybenzoxazoles, and semiconductor devices are included.

  • Publication number: 20030050431
    Abstract: Polyhydroxyamides are polymerized to form highly-crosslinked, temperature-stable polymers. The polyhydroxyamides include as their central, parent structure a benzenetricarboxylic acid to which side chains containing a terminal reactive group are attached by an amide bond. By way of this reactive group, highly crosslinked polymers can be formed. In addition, the polyhydroxyamide can be added as an additive to polymers in order to bring about three-dimensional crosslinking.

  • Publication number: 20030027885
    Abstract: The novel photo-cross-linkable polymers are suitable as coating materials. The photo-cross-linkable polymers contain a biphenylene unit, which can be dimerized by exposure. Attached to the biphenyl unit are side chains of a polymer with a high temperature resistance and a high chemical stability. Through exposure, the biphenylene units dimerize, whereby the polymers are spatially cross-linked.

  • Publication number: 20030027970
    Abstract: The organic polymers of the invention have electrical semiconductor properties. The compounds have a backbone of phenylene groups to which side groups with semiconductor properties, or which impart semiconductor properties to the polymer, are bonded. The polymers are obtained by Bergmann cyclization from compounds that contain aromatic groups to which vicinal ethynyl groups are bonded. The polymers are suitable for the production of semiconductor components, such as organic transistors or diodes.
