Abstract
An integrated circuit and a method of forming an integrated circuit is described. The integrated circuit includes a silicon substrate, a dielectric stack formed on the silicon substrate, and conductive metal lines overlying the silicon substrate. A first layer of low-k dielectric material overlies the at least one conductive metal line, and a second layer of low-k dielectric material overlies the first layer of low-k dielectric material. The first layer of low-k dielectric material is electron beam (E-beam) cured and the second layer of low-k dielectric material is thermally cured.
