    摘要: A method for forming air gaps between interconnect structures in semiconductor devices provides a sacrificial layer formed over a dielectric and within openings formed therein. The sacrificial layer is a blanket layer that is converted to a material that is consumable in an etchant composition that the dielectric material and a subsequently formed interconnect material are resistant to. After the interconnect material is deposited a planarized surface including portions of the dielectric material, vertical sections of the converted material and portions of the interconnect material is produced. The etchant composition then removes the converted material thereby forming voids. A capping layer is formed over the structure resulting in air gaps. A sidewall protection layer may be optionally formed between the interconnect structure and the sacrificial material. In some embodiments an ARC layer may be formed over the dielectric and form part of the planar surface.
