Patent EP-1425948-A2 (EP)
Inventor: FRENNESSON GOERAN
IPC: C25F7/00
Filed: 2002-09-09
Abstract: Etching of copper on a card is achieved by applying an electrical voltage between a cathode (102) and the card (42), the card (42) thereby forming an anode. The cathode (102) and the card (42) are immersed in an electrolyte comprising a first component, which may be reduced from a first state in the form of an ion having a metal atom with a first positive oxidation number to a second state in the form of an ion having said metal atom with a second positive oxidation number, which is less than said first positive oxidation number. A first redox potential in the electrolyte for reduction from the first to the second state is larger than a second redox potential in the electrolyte for reduction of divalent copper ions to metallic copper. During the etching metallic copper on the card is oxidized and transferred into positively charged copper ions while the first component is reduced from its first state to its second state. The quality of the etched structures on the card is improved since no metallic copper is precipitated on the cathode.

Abstract: Dominated nodes (A,B and C) are equipped only with lower layers (1a,2a and 3a),
and upper layers for the lower layers are not equipped. Each of
the lower layers (1a,2a and 3a) comprises a preset device, and managing

Abstract: An insulator 2 is inserted into a metallic shell 1 in the direction of an axis O,
and a sealing material powder 160 is charged into a circumferential gap 20 formed
between the inner circumferential surface of a rear end portion of the metallic shell 1
and the outer circumferential surface of the insulator 2. In such charging, the sealing
material powder 160 is divided into a plurality of charge units 161, and a step of
charging one charge unit 161 into the gap 20 and preliminarily compressing the
charge unit 161 in the gap 20 is repeated to thereby form preliminarily compressed
sealing-material-powder layers 162a and 162b in the gap 20. Subsequently, the
portion-to-be-crimped 1d' is curved toward the outer circumferential surface of the
insulator 2 to thereby be crimped, whereby the preliminarily compressed sealing-material-powder
layers 162a and 162b are formed into a compressed sealing-material-powder
layer 61 which satisfies 0.5≤M≤1.3 and 0.5≤L≤2 × (M × 4.5),
wherein L mm represents height as measured in the direction of the axis O, and M
mm represents thickness as measured radially with respect to the axis O.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of patterning inter-metal
dielectric layers. The method comprises a) sequentially
layering a lower etch-stop layer (2), a lower dielectric
layer (3), an upper etch-stop layer (4), and an upper
dielectric layer (5) on a semiconductor substrate including
a lower circuit (1) patterned thereon, b) patterning the
upper dielectric layer (5), the upper etch-stop layer (4),
and the lower dielectric layer (3) to form a via hole (7) to
expose the lower etch-stop layer (2) on the lower circuit,
c) irradiating UV rays to the via hole (7), d) forming a
photoresist layer (8) on the resulting semiconductor
substrate including the via hole thereon, and patterning the
photoresist layer, e) patterning the upper dielectric layer
using the patterned photoresist layer (9) as an etching mask
to form a metal circuit around the via hole (7) in the upper
dielectric layer (5), and f) exposing an upper portion of
the lower circuit (11). Additionally, the method is
advantageous in that a metal circuit is formed in the inter-metal
dielectric layers according to a dual damascene
process, thereby easily removing a photoresist residue,
which is difficult to remove during developing the
photoresist layer, and preventing an increase in the
dielectric constant of porous dielectric layers caused by
the absorption of water into the porous dielectric layers.
