Abstract

An integrated circuit may include multiple back-end-of-line (BEOL) interconnect layers. The BEOL interconnect layers may include conductive lines and conductive vias. The integrated circuit may further include an interlayer dielectric (ILD) between the BEOL interconnect layers. The ILD may include the conductive lines and the conductive vias. At least a portion of the ILD may include a low-K insulating graphene alloy.
