摘要:
When a "two-level" solid state image pickup device is manufactured, part of a first metallic electrode (28a) electrically connected to a signal storage region (24b) is made to project to the highest position above a substrate on which it is formed. A coating of an organic insulating film (29) is then applied to produce a flat surface. The entire surface of the organic film is then etched to expose the projections (A) of the first metallic electrode (28a) and a second metallic electrode (28b) constituting a pixel electrode is connected to the first electrode (28a) at the exposed portion thereof.

Disclosed is a process for forming a pattern of metallization (3) on a processed semiconductor substrate (1), under high temperature conditions, employing a polyimide precursor material (2) as a lift-off layer. Advantageously, the material is photosensitive, and, after exposure and development, the portions of the layer remaining on the substrate can be completely and readily removed with conventional solvents.
摘要:
A process for etching deep trenches to achieve dielectric isolation for integrated circuit devices; the process insures obtaining substantially perfectly vertical trench walls (94) by precluding significant variation in etch bias during the trench formation. This is accomplished by interposing, between the conventionally formed imaging layer (86) of photoresist and the masking layer (84), two additional layers: one layer being an organic underlay (88) which is applied over the masking layer of SiO 2 (84); the other layer (90) applied over the oroanic laver and beina comoosed of silicon nitride or oxide.
摘要:
A process for forming a protective polyimide layer over a semiconductor substrate includes the steps of curing a deposited polyamic acid layer at a temperature which is sufficient to reduce the etch rate of the acid layer when subsequently exposed to a developer. After formation of a photoresist masking layer over the polyamic acid, the substrate is exposed to a developer to define a plurality of bonding pad openings therein. The developer permeates into the acid layer to form a salt in the regions beneath the openings. Subsequent hardbaking imidizes the polyamic acid, but not the salt regions. Removing the photoresist layer also develops the polyimide which removes the salt regions to expose the underlying bonding pads.
