In high-performance semiconductors, the back-end-of-line (BEOL) interconnect pitch has been shrinking for decades following Moore’s law. Steady advances in very-large-scale integration (VLSI) technology for both digital and analog devices could never have been achieved without overcoming various reliability risks in IC chips as well as packages...
