摘要： A method of monitoring synthesis of PCMO precursor solutions includes preparing a PCMO precursor solution and withdrawing samples of the precursor solution at intervals during a reaction phase of the PCMO precursor solution synthesis. The samples of the PCMO precursor solution are analyzed by UV spectroscopy to determine UV transmissivity of the samples of the PCMO precursor solution and the samples used to form PCMO thin films. Electrical characteristics of the PCMO thin films formed from the samples are determined to identify PCMO thin films having optimal electrical characteristics. The UV spectral characteristics of the PCMO precursor solutions are correlated with the PCMO thin films having optimal electrical characteristics. The UV spectral characteristics are used to monitor synthesis of future batches of the PCMO precursor solutions, which will result in PCMO thin films having optimal electrical characteristics.

摘要： A method is provided for forming a NanoElectroChemical (NEC) cell. The method provides a bottom electrode with a top surface. Nanowire shells are formed. Each nanowire shell has a nanowire and a sleeve, with the nanowire connected to the bottom electrode top surface. A top electrode is formed overlying the nanowire shells. A main cavity is formed between the top electrode and bottom electrodes, partially displaced by a first plurality of nanowire shells. Electrolyte cavities are formed between the sleeves and nanowires by etching the first sacrificial layer. In one aspect, electrolyte cavities are formed between the bottom electrode top surface and a shell coating layer joining the sleeve bottom openings. Then, the main and electrolyte cavities are filled with either a liquid or gas phase electrolyte. In a different aspect, the first sacrificial layer is a solid phase electrolyte that is not etched away.

摘要： A system and method of selectively etching copper surfaces free of copper oxides in preparation for the deposition of an interconnecting metallic material is provided. The method removes metal oxides with &bgr;-diketones, such as Hhfac. The Hhfac is delivered into the system in vapor form, and reacts almost exclusively to copper oxides. The by-products of the cleaning process are likewise volatile for removal from the system with a vacuum pressure. Since the process is easily adaptable to most IC process systems, it can be conducted in an oxygen-free environment, without the removal of the IC from the process chamber. The in-situ cleaning process permits a minimum amount of copper oxide to reform before the deposition of the overlying interconnection metal. In this manner, a highly conductive electrical interconnection between the copper surface and the interconnecting metal material is formed. An IC having a metal interconnection, in which the underlying copper layer is cleaned of copper oxides, in-situ with Hhfac vapor, is also provided.
