In chemistry, a silicate is any member of a family of anions consisting of silicon and oxygen, usually with the general formula [SiO₄₋ₓ]ₙ, where 0 ≤ x < 2. The family includes orthosilicate SiO⁴⁻₄ (x = 0), metasilicate SiO²⁻₃ (x = 1), and pyrosilicate Si₂O⁶⁻₇ (x = 0.5, n = 2). The name is also used for any salt of such anions, such as sodium metasilicate; or any ester containing the corresponding chemical group, such as tetramethyl orthosilicate.

Recovery of hydrophobicity of low-k and ultra low-k organosilicate films used as inter metal dielectrics

Often used to reduce the RC delay in integrated circuits are dielectric films of porous organosilicates which have a silica like backbone with alkyl or aryl groups (to add hydrophobicity to the materials and create free volume) attached directly to the Si atoms in the network. Si—R bonds rarely survive an exposure to plasmas or chemical treatments commonly used in processing; this is especially the case in materials with an open cell pore structure. When Si—R bonds are broken, the materials lose hydrophobicity, due to formation of hydrophilic silanols and low dielectric constant is compromised. A method by which the hydrophobicity of the materials is recovered using a novel class of silylation agents which may have the general formula (R2N)XSiR′Y where X and Y are integers from 1 to 3 and 3 to 1 respectively, and where R and R′ are selected from the group of hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, allyl and a vinyl moiety. Mechanical strength of porous organosilicates is also improved as a result of the silylation treatment.
