Abstract
Provided are methods of sealing open pores of a surface of a porous dielectric material using an initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD) process. In one example method of sealing open pores, since the polymer thin film having a significantly thin thickness may be formed by a solvent-free vapor deposition method without plasma treatment, it is possible to minimize deterioration of characteristics of the dielectric material vulnerable to plasma and a chemical solution.
