| Abstract | Cu with high density nanotwins has been proven to possess excellent mechanical properties and electrical properties. In this study, nanotwins have been successfully introduced in Cu thin films and interconnect lines in trenches down to 150 nm line width. Nanoindentation measurements of hardness show that Cu with some amount of nanotwins has much higher hardness than that of bulk Cu. More interestingly, the hardness at the grain boundary area where there are triple points due to the intersection with some twin boundaries seems to be higher than that inside the grains. Nanotwinned Cu has also been investigated under annealing to study the thermal stability of the nanotwin-modified structure. Copper with nanotwins has slower grain growth than the Cu without nanotwins. Moreover, DC electroplated Cu with very few nanotwins undergoes abnormal grain growth at room temperature while the nanotwinned Cu has very little abnormal grain growth and shows much more uniform grain size. We believe that the effect of nanotwins on the physical properties of Cu is related to the change of the grain boundary microstructure when the twin induced triple points are present in the grain boundaries. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
