In CVD deposited organo-silicate glass (OSG) the substitution of oxygen in SiO2 by methyl groups (-CH3) reduces the permittivity significantly (from 4.0 in SiO2 to 2.6-3.3 in the OSG). However, plasma processing removes C and H containing molecular groups. Therefore, compositional analysis and chemical bonding characterization of structured films with nanometer resolution is necessary. OSG thin films as-deposited and after plasma treatment are studied using XAS and EELS. In both techniques, the fine structure near the C1s edge allows to identify C-H, C-C, and C-O bonds. XAS spectra have been recorded for non-patterned films and EELS spectra for patterned structures. The chemical bonding is compared for as-deposited and plasma-treated low-k materials. The flu-orescence and the electron yield recorded while XAS measurement are compared. Examination of the C 1s near-edge structures reveal a mod-ified bonding of the remaining C atoms in the plasma-treated sample regions.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchmeisserZhengHimpseletal., author = {Schmeißer, Dieter and Zheng, Fan and Himpsel, Franz J. and Engelmann, Hans-J{\"u}rgen and Zschech, Ehrenfried}, title = {Silicate Formation at the Interface of High-k Dielectrics and Si(001) Surfaces}, language = {en} }
