A method of forming a dual damascene semiconductor interconnection and an etchant composition specially adapted for stripping a sacrificial layer in a dual damascene fabrication process without profile damage to a dual damascene pattern are provided. The method includes sequentially forming a first etch stop layer, a first intermetal dielectric, a second intermetal dielectric, and a capping layer on a surface of a semiconductor substrate on which a lower metal wiring is formed; etching the first intermetal dielectric, the second intermetal dielectric, and the capping layer to form a via; forming a sacrificial layer within the via; etching the sacrificial layer, the second intermetal dielectric, and the capping layer to form a trench; removing the sacrificial layer remaining around the via using an etchant composition including NH4F, HF, H2O and a surfactant; and forming an upper metal wiring within the thus formed dual damascene pattern including the via and the trench. The preferred etchant composition for stripping a sacrificial layer in the foregoing dual damascene process consists essentially of NH4F, HF, H2O and a surfactant.
