USA ABSTRACT
A "dry" carbon dioxide process has been investigated as a
replacement for conventional solvent and deionised-water spray
techniques for metal lift-off process steps. Results show that wafer
yield is improved as a result of reduced electrical degradation and
particle density. We also observe reductions in contact resistance
between the interconnect metal and ohmic metal layers of greater than
20%.
