Why Chips Need Low Dielectric Constant (Low-k) Materials

Why Chips Need Low Dielectric Constant (Low-k) Materials

In modern chips, billions of transistors are interconnected by metal lines to form complex circuits. As the manufacturing process enters the nanoscale, a seemingly “invisible” problem gradually comes to light:Capacitive coupling between metal lines. This coupling not only slows down signal transmission speeds but can also lead to data transmission errors. The key to solving … Read more
