A novel test structure for contact resistance measurement of bonded copper interconnects in three-dimensional integration technology is proposed and fabricated. This test structure requires a simple fabrication process and eliminates the Possibility of measurement errors due to misalignment during bonding. Specific contact resistances of bonding interfaces with different interconnect sizes of approximately 10(-8) Omega-cm(2) are measured. A reduction in specific contact resistance is obtained by longer anneal time. The specific contact resistance of bonded interconnects with longer anneal time does not change with interconnect sizes.
