Figure 1
Scanning electron micrographs of the TSV. The circular via had a diameter of 100 µm (a). The details of the inner wall surface (b) and cross section (c) document the scalloped morphology of the silicon substrate and the stack of SiO2, W and Si3N4 sublayers. The filled and open circles in (b) schematically indicate the positions of the W film scallop hill and valley at which X-ray nanodiffraction data from Fig. 3[link] were collected.
