| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to methods for post-etch, particularly post-RIE, removal of fluorocarbon-based residues from a hybrid dielectric structure. The hybrid dielectric structure contains a first dielectric material, and a line-level dielectric layer containing a second, different dielectric material, and wherein said second, different dielectric material comprises a polymeric thermoset dielectric material having a dielectric constant less than 4. Low energy electron beam or low temperature annealing is utilized by the present invention for removal of the fluorocarbon-based residues from such a hybrid dielectric structure, without damaging the low-k polymeric thermoset dielectric material contained in such a hybrid dielectric structure.
