A method for metallizing a through silicon via feature in a semiconductor integrated circuit device substrate. The method comprises immersing the semiconductor integrated circuit device substrate into an electrolytic copper deposition composition, wherein the through silicon via feature has an entry dimension between 1 micrometers and 100 micrometers, a depth dimension between 20 micrometers and 750 micrometers, and an aspect ratio greater than about 2:1; and supplying electrical current to the electrolytic deposition composition to deposit copper metal onto the bottom and sidewall for bottom-up filling to thereby yield a copper filled via feature. The deposition composition comprises (a) a source of copper ions; (b) an acid selected from among an inorganic acid, organic sulfonic acid, and mixtures thereof; (c) an organic disulfide compound; (d) a compound selected from the group consisting of a reaction product of benzyl chloride and hydroxyethyl polyethyleneimine, a quaternized dipyridyl compound, and a combination thereof; and (d) chloride ions.
A method for metallizing a through silicon via feature in a semiconductor integrated circuit device substrate, wherein the semiconductor integrated circuit device substrate comprises a front surface, a back surface, and the via feature and wherein the via feature comprises an opening in the front surface of the substrate, a sidewall extending from the front surface of the substrate, and a bottom, the method comprising:
