| abstract |
Methods of forming dielectric films comprising Si, C, O and H atoms (SiCOH) or Si, C, N and H atoms (SiCHN) that have improved cohesive strength (or equivalently, improved fracture toughness or reduced brittleness), and increased resistance to water degradation of properties such as stress-corrosion cracking, Cu ingress, and other critical properties are provided. Electronic structures including the above materials are also included herein. |
