Electromigration-induced void evolution in various dual-inlaid copper (Cu) interconnect structures was simulated by applying a phenomenological model assisted by Monte Carlo-based simulations, considering the redistribution of heterogeneously nucleated voids and/or pre-existing vacancy clusters at t...
