摘要：

The benefits of multi-layer graphene (MLG) capping on Cu interconnects have been experimentally demonstrated. The resistance of MLG capped Cu wires improved by 2-7% compared to Cu wires. The breakdown current density increased by 18%, suggesting that the MLG can act as an excellent capping material for Cu interconnects, improving the reliability characteristics. With a proper process optimization, MLG capped Cu interconnects could become a promising technology for high density back end-of-line interconnects.
