Coupling layer composition for a semiconductor device, semiconductor device, method of forming the coupling layer, and apparatus for the manufacture of a semiconductor device

Molecules of a coupling layer composition in a semiconductor device are bidimensionally polymerized in order to provide enhanced moisture blocking effect, particularly when the coupling layer is formed on a porous layer, such as a porous dielectric layer. The deposition of the coupling layer on the underlying structure and/or the cross-polymerization of the coupling layer composition and/or a final metallization can be photo-activated, especially, but not only, using an ultraviolet light.
