Abstract
Under-bump metallization R c is a critical metric for high-density interconnect in electronic devices. We developed a test vehicle to characterize the impact of unit processes on R c for 10- $\mu \text{m}$ polymer passivation opening. We demonstrate that advanced preclean is necessary to achieve low (R c < 20 $\text{m}\Omega$ ) for future node extendibility, owing to reduction of both Al oxide and organometallic formation. This is achievable through a combination of low-temperature (
