  • Publication number: 20040082756
    Abstract: A dielectric for aluminum and copper metalizations is stable at high temperatures. Surprisingly, in spite of the elimination of water during the cyclization, the polymeric dielectrics are very suitable for filling narrow trenches. The filled trenches exhibit no defects and bubbles or cracks. The polybenzoxazoles have dielectric constants of k≦2.7 and are suitable as an electrical insulator. Furthermore, these materials adhere very well on all surfaces relevant for microelectronics.

  • 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: 20040060635
    Abstract: In a method of bonding components, a poly-o-hydroxyamide is applied to each of the bond areas of the components to be bonded. After the bond areas have been bonded to one another the adhesively bonded assembly is heated in order to convert the poly-o-hydroxyamide to the corresponding polybenzoxazole. The adhesive bonding technology is able to replace conventional joining techniques, such as welding, brazing or shrink fitting. The method is especially suitable for producing X-ray image intensifiers.

  • Patent number: 6635410
    Abstract: A method for metallizing dielectrics includes applying a photosensitive dielectric to a substrate. The dielectric is then exposed to light through a mask, is seeded with a metal and is subjected to a temperature treatment. Afterwards, the dielectric is chemically metallized. Alternatively, the dielectric can be first be seeded with a metal after being applied to the substrate, and can then be exposed to light through a mask. Afterwards, excess seeding material is removed and the dielectric is chemically metallized.

  • 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.

  • Patent number: 6599687
    Abstract: A process for producing structured or patterned protective and insulating layers includes applying a solution of a photosensitive polyhydroxyamide or polyhydroxyimide to a substrate and drying. The layer is patterned or structured by irradiation with UV light or X-rays through the use of a mask or by guidance of a UV or electron beam and by subsequent aqueous-alkali development. The patterned or structured layer is irradiated over the whole area with UV light and then tempered or heat-treated.

  • Publication number: 20030134226
    Abstract: High-temperature-stable polybenzoxazoles are formed from novel poly-o-hydroxyamides. The novel poly-o-hydroxyamides have low dielectric constants, are suitable for exposure at 248 nm or shorter wavelengths, and have hydroxyl groups at least some of which have been protected by tert-butoxycarbonyl protective groups.

  • Publication number: 20030104311
    Abstract: Bis-o-aminophenols, which carry on at least one of their hydroxyl groups a tert-butoxy-carbonyl group, can be reacted with dicarboxylic acids to give the corresponding poly-o-hydroxyamides. Following cyclization to the polybenzoxazole, these polymers have a lower dielectric constant than compounds prepared from corresponding poly-o-hydroxyamides which do not carry any tert-butoxycarbonyl group.

  • Publication number: 20030099904
    Abstract: A photosensitive formulation for high-temperature-resistant photoresists is based on polyhydroxyamides. The photosensitive formulations display a much higher photosensitivity than the comparable formulations based on quinone azide photoactive components. After conversion to the polybenzoxazole, the novel formulations also display a lower dielectric constant than the quinone azide-based formulations. A film can be made by applying the photosensitive formulation to a wafer and then evaporating the solvent. A method for fabricating electronics and micorelectronics structures a wafer by using the film in photolithography.

  • Publication number: 20030100698
    Abstract: Materials for dielectrics and/or buffer layers in microelectronics utilize polymers can be based on bis-o-nitrophenols. The bis-o-nitrophenols carry a tert-butoxycarbonyl group on at least one of the hydroxyl groups. The polybenzoxazoles prepared from these compounds have a lower dielectric constant than corresponding polymers which are prepared from bis-o-nitrophenols that do not have a tert-butoxycarbonyl group.

  • Publication number: 20030087190
    Abstract: A photosensitive formulation for high-temperature-stable photoresists is based on polyhydroxyamides. The photosensitive formulations are suitable for exposures at 248 nm and below, and following conversion into the polybenzoxazole exhibit a much lower dielectric constant than the corresponding formulations whose base polymers do not contain these protective groups. All of the protective groups are eliminated on heat treatment (baking) while the dielectric constant of the formulations remains as low as that of the base polymers used, which is much lower than the prior art.
