Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for providing a dielectric layer on a semiconductor substrate capable of supporting very high density interconnects (i.e., ?100 IO/mm). The dielectric layer includes a maleimide polymer in which a thiol-terminated functional group crosslinks with an epoxy resin. The resultant dielectric material provides a dielectric constant of less than 3 and a dissipation factor of less than 0.001. Additionally, the thiol functional group forms coordination complexes with noble metals present in the conductive structures, thus by controlling the stoichiometry of epoxy to polyimide, the thiol-polyimide may beneficially provide an adhesion enhancer between the dielectric and noble metal conductive structures.
