AbstractThe mechanical, thermal, electrical and moisture absorption properties of rod-like, fluorinated polyimides and copolyimides developed in our laboratory are briefly reviewed. Further characterization work on the most promising candidates for interlayer dielectric applications is reported. This includes in- and out-of-plane refractive index measurements to estimate the isotropy of the dielectric constant, isothermal TGA measurements to assess thermal stability at processing temperatures and dynamic-mechanical analysis to ascertain the glass transition temperature and the mechanical modulus at temperatures in excess of the glass transition

AbstractThe thermal stability of organic porous low k, porous SiLK with a dielectric constant of 2.4, has been studied. Organic low k material SiLKTM, non-porous SiLK, with a dielectric constant 2.8 is used as a baseline for comparison. Each sample was subjected to annealing cycles, where each cycle was conducted in a vertical furnace for one hour in an N2 ambient. The annealing temperature was set at either 430°C or 450°C. After every alternate cycle, the film properties were measured and compared to the unannealed sample for changes in film shrinkage, refractive index, dielectric constant, roughness, breakdown voltage, pore size, hardness and Young's modulus. Changes in film properties were investigated and evaluated by using opti-probe, FTIR, XPS, AFM, mercury probe, nano-indentation, SEM and TEM techniques.

High-efficiency Si solar cells have attracted great attention from researchers, scientists, photovoltaic (PV) industry engineers for the past few decades. With thin wafers, surface passivation becomes necessary to increase the solar cells efficiency by overcoming several induced effects due to associated crystal defects and impurities of c-Si. This paper discusses suitable passivation schemes and optimization techniques to achieve high efficiency at low cost. SiNx film was optimized with higher transmittance and reduced recombination for using as an effective antireflection and passivation layer to attain higher solar cell efficiencies. The higher band gap increased the transmittance with reduced defect states that persisted at 1.68 and 1.80 eV in SiNx films. The thermal stability of SiN (Si-rich)/SiN (N-rich) stacks was also studied. Si-rich SiN with a refractive index of 2.7 was used as a passivation layer and N-rich SiN with a refractive index of 2.1 was used for thermal stability. An implied VOC of 720 mV with a stable lifetime of 1.5 ms was obtained for the stack layer after firing. Si–N and Si–H bonding concentration was analyzed by FTIR for the correlation of thermally stable passivation mechanism. The passivation property of spin coated Al2O3 films was also investigated. An effective surface recombination velocity of 55 cm/s with a high density of negative fixed charges (Qf) on the order of 9×1011 cm−2 was detected in Al2O3 films.

ABSTRACTWe synthesized novel cross-linkable fluorinated copoly(arylene ether sulfide)s for optical waveguide applications, which have high thermal stability, high optical transparency in the infrared communication region, and much smaller birefringence than other thermally stable fluorinated polyimides. The refractive index of the material can be easily controlled from 1.515 to 1.587 by changing the copolymer composition in the materials. The birefringence of the cured polymers were 0.0031∼0.0039 at the wavelength of 1.55 μm. This is much lower than those of fluorinated polyimides for optical waveguides. The refractive index of fluorinated poly(arylene ether sulfide) (FPAESI) after being stored at 100 °C for 1000 hr remains almost constant demonstrating the thermal stability. The propagation loss of the channel waveguides fabricated using reactive ion etching was less than 0.4 dB/cm at the wavelength of 1.55 μm.
