Use of PE-SiON or PE-OXIDE for contact or via photo and for defect reduction with oxide and W chemical-mechanical polish
摘要:
A method forming a protective (SiON or PE-Ox) dielectric anti-reflective coating (DARC) over a di electric layer after a chemical-mechanical polish dielectric layer planarization process and before a chemical-mechanical polish of a conductive layer used in a contact or via plug formation. A dielectric layer is chemical-mechanical polished thereby creating microscratches in the dielectric layer. The invention's protective SiON or PE-OX DARC layer is formed over the dielectric layer whereby the protective SiON or PE-OX DARC layer fills in the microscratches. A first opening is etched in he protective layer and the dielectric layer. A conductive layer is formed over the protective layer and fills the first opening. The conductive layer is chemical-mechanical polished to remove the conductive layer from over the protective layer and to form an interconnect filling the first opening. The protective SiON or PE-OX DARC layer is used as a CMP stop thereby preventing microscratches in the dielectric layer.
