Over the past decades, scaling of microelectronic chips, in particular transistors and memory cells, has allowed to increase substantially both the density of integrated circuit and integrate the umber of functions offered. Such scaling required the introduction oflow permittivity dielectrics, which are particularly sensitive to moisture pollution. This thesis details the dielectrics main properties and the consequences of moisture ingress insuch low-permittivity dielectrics, also referred as SiOC :H dielectrics. The fabrication of low-κ/copper-based interconnects is detailed. Then, the SiOC :H dielectric material is characterised to determine its chemical and molecular structure in order to understand underlying physical phenomenon leading...
