The corrosion failure of electronic devices has been a major reliability concern lately. This failure is an ongoing concern because of miniaturization of integrated circuits (IC) and the increased use of polymers in electronic packaging. Recently, plasma-polymerized cyclohexane films were considered as a possible candidate for a interlayer dielectric for multilever metallization of ultra large scale integrated (ULSI) semiconductor devices. In this paper the protective ability of above films as a function of deposition temperature and RF power in an 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution were examined by polarization measurement. The film was characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and contact angle measurement. The protective efficiency of the film increased with increasing deposition temperature and RF power, which induced the higher degree of cross-linking and hydrophobicity of the films.
