摘要: From the perspective of recent contributions to field, we discuss essential physics behind short-stripe effect in drift velocity electromigration (EM), transition creep controlled short, near-threshold interconnects, role dynamic EM stresses and possible mechanism their relaxation by non-constrained diffusional into hillocks.
