Abstract

A method is presented to determine the kinetics of elemental migration during thermal treatment in multilayer systems by means of analytical electron microscopy. It is based on the analysis of X-ray spectra excited in the electron diffusion cloud produced by relatively low-energy electrons (10-20 keV) in the sample. The method is verified by means of Monte Carlo simulations of electron spreading and X-ray excitation. It was applied to multilayer metallizations to investigate the failure mechanisms of diffusion barrier layers. The results are described.
