Diffusion Barriers/Adhesion Promoters. Surface and Interfacial Studies of Copper and Copper-Aluminum Alloys
… between copper and the diffusion barrier/adhesion promoter. The behavior of copper sputter-deposited onto sputter-cleaned tantalum nitride is investigated. The data show that copper growth on tantalum nitride proceeds with the formation of 3-D islands, indicating poor adhesion …

Tantalum- and ruthenium-based diffusion barriers/adhesion promoters for copper/silicon dioxide and copper/low κ integration.
The TaSiO6 films, ~8Å thick, were formed by sputter deposition of Ta onto ultrathin SiO2 substrates at 300 K, followed by annealing to 600 K in 2 torr O2. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements of the films yielded a Si(2p) binding energy at 102.1 eV and Ta(4f7/2) binding energy at …

Synthesis and Characterization of Thin films of Novel Functionalised 2,5-Dithienylpyrrole Derivatives on Oxide Substrates
… conducting polymers. The problem of poor adhesion of the electrochemically deposited conducting polymers was the main focus of this work. This easy peeling of the PPY layer from the oxide substrate was circumvented by design of novel adhesion promoters, which compatibilise the two …

Synthesis and Characterization of Pyrrole Based Adhesion Promoter Systems on Oxide Substrates
… were designed and successfully synthesized as adhesion promoters. These new derivatives were studied for their adsorption behavior on oxide substrates and chemical or electrochemical deposition of polypyrrole over modified oxide surface or electrodes. Several analytical techniques such as …

Adhesion/Diffusion Barrier Layers for Copper Integration: Carbon-Silicon Polymer Films and Tantalum Substrates
… substrates, including diffusion barriers and adhesion promoters, is essential to achieve this goal. The objective of this research is to develop novel organic polymers as Cu/low-k interfacial layers and to investigate popular barrier candidates, such as clean and modified tantalum (Ta) …

Well defined graft copolymers and end functional materials: synthesis, characterization and adhesion studies
… were tested for their ability to act as adhesion promoters between poly(propylene)/EPDM and cycloaliphatic polyurethane coatings. Hydroxyl or carboxyl end functional materials were synthesized where molecular weight and chain microstructure were syStematically varied. Effective adhesion …

An Investigation of Plasma Pretreatments and Plasma Polymerized Thin Films for Titanium/Polyimide Adhesion
… polymerized (PP) films were investigated as adhesion promoters. Plasma treatments were carried out using custom-built, low pressure, radio frequency, inductively coupled plasma reactors. Ti-6Al-4V coupons were plasma treated and used to prepare miniature single lap shear (SLS) joints. The …

Adhesion and Durability of Coatings on Polypropylene Exterior Sidings
… requirements of a coating for siding are good adhesion, durability, and a suitable appearance. However, polypropylene, like many plastics, has a low surface energy, making wetting and coating adhesion difficult.</p> <p>One of the many ways to increase the surface energy of polypropylene, thus …
