AbstractPorous low dielectric films containing nano pores (∼20Å) with low dielectric constant (<2.2), have been prepared by using various kinds of cyclodextrin derivatives as porogenic materials. The pore structure such as pore size and interconnectivity can be controlled by changing functional groups of the cyclodextrin derivatives. We found that mechanical properties of porous low-k thin film prepared with mCSSQ (modified cyclic silsesquioxane) precursor and cyclodextrin derivatives were correlated with the pore interconnection length. The longer the interconnection length of nanopores in the thin film, the worse the mechanical properties of the thin film (such as hardness and modulus) even though the pore diameter of the films were microporous (∼2nm).

The purpose of this work is to study the mechanical characteristics of the silicon nitride(SiNx) thin films prepared by PECVD technique, some researches as follows were carried out. First, the SiNx thin films were deposited on the two different substrates. Then, the atomic force microscope (AFM) was adopted to test the surface quality of the SiNxfilms, and the scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to test the section morphology of the SiNxthin films. Finally, the rotating beam structures was applied to measure the residual stress in the SiNx films. The SiNxthin films with low stress can be fabricated through PECVD, in which the surface roughness values(Ra) are 1.261 nm and 2.383nm, and the residual stress is 43.5 kPa. Therefore, the SiNxthin films deposited by PECVD are suitable for the preparation of device dielectric films in MEMS.
