ABSTRACTStress induced voiding in passivated Cu lines was investigated by x-ray strain analysis and in-situ high voltage scanning electron microscope (HVSEM) techniques. Cu lines on a Ta underlayer and Cu lines on an Al underlayer were patterned by a trilayer liftoff technique and passivated with Si3N4. For direct observation of stress voiding, specimens were heated to 350ºC in the HVSEM and then cooled and held at 150ºC. Identical samples were subjected to the same thermal cycle for strain state determination using x-ray techniques. The hydrostatic stress state at each temperature was calculated from the measured strains. Few initial voids were observed after passivation in either sample. After heating to 350ºC and cooling to the dwell temperature, no new voiding was seen in the Ta/Cu lines. Measured hydrostatic strains were half those measured in the Al/Cu lines. Heavy voiding was observed in the Al/Cu lines after cooling to the dwell temperature.

X-rays techniques are widely used in the non-destructive evaluation field for mechanical inspection. However, development of new x-ray detectors and sources over the last decade has let to an intensive use of this technique in other fields. In this paper, we describe the use of X-rays techniques in the field of fluid flow engineering (fluidics and heat transfer). This technique is very attractive since measurements can be performed even if pressure, temperature require the use of opaque walls. In addition the X-ray technique is well suited to multiphase flows where optical technique can not be used if void fraction is larger than few percents. Specific gravity, mass or void fraction are the main accessible parameters.
