Abstract
A sample preparation methodology was developed for Four-Point Bending test (4PB) of Cu/Nblk (Nitrogen-doped Barrier for Low-k, SiCN) bi-material in order to overcome interfacial delamination zero yielding issue, possibly caused by the change in carbon content of Nblk film. The methodology involving (i) chemical de-processing (HNO 3 :BOE mixture) and (ii) film thickness optimization was instrumental in achieving greater than 50% delamination yield.
