A study of the reliability of a multilayer ionised metal plasma Cu/IMP TaN/plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposited SiO2/Si film structure with different thickness of TaN (10-30 nm) is presented. Formation of Cu5Ta11O30 and CuTa10 O26 peaks in the X-ray diffraction analysis when TaN fails suggests diffusion of Cu into oxygen-gettered tantalum. A 30 nm TaN barrier is an effective barrier for the Cu diffusion, sustaining 800°C annealing
