Abstract
This study aims to investigate the modified surface porosity of SiOCH low-k porous thin films using statistical mechanics molecular simulations and ellipso-porosimetry. The thin films are modified by plasma etching and wet cleaning. Numerical simulations of solvent adsorption on surfaces highlighted solvent affinity variations depending on chemical surface compositions.
