A process for fabricating interconnects is provided. First, a substrate having a dielectric layer and silicon-containing mask layer on the dielectric layer is provided. The dielectric layer is patterned to form an opening. Thereafter, a metallic glue layer is formed over the silicon-containing mask layer and the interior surfaces of the opening. A metallic layer is formed over the substrate to fill the opening and cover the metallic glue layer. A thermal treatment process is next carried out so that the metallic glue layer reacts with the silicon-containing mask layer to form a metal silicide layer. A portion of the metallic layer is removed to expose the metal silicide layer. A solution mixture containing hydrogen peroxide, sulfuric acid, water and hydrofluoric acid is used to remove the metal silicide layer. The silicon-containing mask layer is also removed to expose the dielectric layer. The solution mixture containing hydrogen peroxide, sulfuric acid, water and hydrofluoric acid can remove the metal silicide layer completely without damaging the metallic layer.

A method for forming a vertical transistor and a trench capacitor. A semiconductor substrate having a pad stacked layer on the surface and a trench formed therein is provided. A capacitor is formed at the bottom part of the trench and a portion of the upper sidewall of the trench is exposed. A conductive wire is then formed on the capacitor, followed by forming a dielectric layer on the exposed sidewalls of the trench. A trench top dielectric is then formed by liquid phase deposition on the conductive wire. A transistor is then formed on the trench top dielectric, which isolates the transistor from the capacitor.

A method for forming bit lines and bit line contacts in a memory device is provided. A conductive layer is formed over a substrate to cover a plurality of gate structures thereon. A chemical-mechanical polishing operation is performed to polish the conductive layer so that a cap layer of the gate structures is exposed. A portion of the conductive layer is removed so that only the conductive layer between two neighboring gate structures is retained to serve as a bit line contact. A bit line is formed over the substrate such that the bit line and the bit line contact are electrically connected. Because the bit line contact has a smaller dimension compared with a bit line contact formed using the conventional method, the possibility of having a short circuit between a bit line contact and an adjacent bit line is reduced.
