Popis: Studies were carried out to characterize the copper line resistivity as a function of linewidth for sub-130 nm feature size. The Cu line resistivity was found to increase rapidly as the feature size becomes smaller than 0.2 /spl mu/m. Electron scattering from both sidewalls and grain boundaries played significant roles even at geometries several times of the electron mean free path in Cu.
