X-ray diffraction profiling of metal-metal interfaces at the nanoscale
Abstract
Several samples containing interfaces between dissimilar metals were examined using diffraction of synchrotron radiation. The complex refractive index profile in the vicinity of the interface for each sample was reconstructed with spatial resolution of about 40 nm by the phase retrieval x-ray diffractometry technique. A series of computer simulations related to the analysis of various configurations of interfaces between dissimilar materials were performed. A practical algorithm of experimental data collection for a detailed examination of internal interfaces was suggested. An estimation of the minimal size of the interface structure modulations, which can be analyzed by the phase retrieval x-ray diffractometry technique, was suggested from the results of computer simulations. It was shown that interface modulations of about 50-100 nm in bimetals can be readily reconstructed by the technique.

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, depth profiling, and elemental imaging of metal/polyimide interfaces of high density interconnect packages subjected to temperature and humidity
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to analyze surfaces and buried interfaces of a tape ball grid array (TBGA) interconnect package that was exposed to temperature and humidity testing (the pressure cooker test or PCT). Two metallization structures, employing 3.5 and 7.5 nm Cr adhesion layers, respectively, showed dramatically different results in the PCT. For the metallization with 3.5 nm Cr, spontaneous failure occurred on the polymer side of the metal/polyimide interface. Copper and other metals were detected by XPS on and below this polymer surface. For the metallization with 7.5 nm Cr, which did not delaminate in the PCT,more » -
Surface x-ray diffraction of complex metal oxide surfaces and interfaces--a new era
The availability of high-brilliance hard x-ray synchrotron radiation and the advent of novel photon counting area detectors have brought surface x-ray diffraction (SXRD) into a new era. It is now possible to record large numbers of structure factors with much improved reliability within reasonable beamtime durations. As a result, structural determination of the surfaces and interfaces of complex crystallographic systems and heterostructures has now become feasible, especially in conjunction with phase-retrieval methods. It is thereby hoped that detailed structural information will shed light on the unusual physical properties of these systems. Complex metal oxide systems investigated at the Materials Sciencemore » -
