Multilayered intermetallic connection for semiconductor devices

摘要

A low copper concentration multilayered, device interconnect metallurgy, comprises an aluminum-copper (<2 weight percent copper) conductor having formed on one of its surfaces a layer of an intermetallic compound formed from a Group IVA metal and aluminum from the aluminum-copper conductor. The intermetallic compound is formed so as to contain only the single phase line compound of the intermetallic compound.
