Realistic modeling of electromigration in today’s ULSI interconnections

IC architecture makes extensively use of multiple interconnect levels with many vias that enable electrical current to flow between each level. A common failure mechanism in interconnections is the formation and the growth of voids and/or hillocks which may span across the line width and sever (or s...
