  • Publication number: 20240413087
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an interconnect structure includes forming an opening through a dielectric layer. The opening exposes a top surface of a first conductive feature. The method further includes forming a barrier layer on sidewalls of the opening, passivating the exposed top surface of the first conductive feature with a treatment process, forming a liner layer over the barrier layer, and filling the opening with a conductive material. The liner layer may include ruthenium.

  • Publication number: 20240355740
    Abstract: A method includes forming a dielectric layer over a conductive feature, and etching the dielectric layer to form an opening. The conductive feature is exposed through the opening. The method further includes forming a tungsten liner in the opening, wherein the tungsten liner contacts sidewalls of the dielectric layer, depositing a tungsten layer to fill the opening, and planarizing the tungsten layer. Portions of the tungsten layer and the tungsten liner in the opening form a contact plug.

  • Publication number: 20130049798
    Abstract: An exemplary motherboard includes a controller, and two different network card connectors. At least one of the two network card connectors is electronically connected to the controller via a resistor. A user of the motherboard may choose to use either the first network card connector, or the second network card connector, or the first network card connector and the second network card connector simultaneously.
