<p>By improving the purity of metal lines (112) and/or the crystalline structure, the overall performance of metal lines, especially of highly scaled copper-based semiconductor devices (100) , may be enhanced. The modification of the crystalline structure of the metal lines may be performed by a heat treatment generating locally restricted heating zones, which are scanned along the length direction of the metal lines (112) , and/or a heat treatment comprising a heating step in a vacuum ambient followed by a heating step in a reducing ambient.</p> |
