    摘要: A mask and a method for forming a mask on a surface of an underlying layer of material used in semiconductor device manufacturing. The mask is a mixture of mask particles and spacer particles. The spacer particles space the mask particles apart from one another to control the distance and the uniformity of the distribution of mask particles across the surface of the underlying layer. The spacer particles and mask particles have different physical properties that allow the spacer particles to be selectively removed from the surface of the underlying layer. The spacer particles are preferably removed from the surface of the underlying layer by selectively etching the spacer particles from the underlying layer. After the spacer particles are removed from the underlying layer, the mask particles remain on the underlying layer to provide spaced apart mask elements on the surface of the underlying layer.

    摘要: An implant mask (14) and an etch mask (16) are utilized in forming a silicon carbide JFET (10). A source opening (17) and a drain opening (18) are formed in the masks (14,16). The etch mask (16) is removed, and a source area (19) and a drain area 21 are implanted through the openings (17,18) and source and drain contact (23, 24) are formed. A protective layer (26) is used to form source and drain contacts (23,24). A gate contact (27) is utilized to ensure the gate (28) is self-aligned to the gate contact (27).

    摘要: A method of etching openings in oxide layers is disclosed. A hard mask layer is formed on the oxide layer. The hard mask layer is then patterned by a photoresist layer and an etch is performed to form openings in the hard mask. Next, the patterning layer may be removed and an etch is performed to remove the oxide in the regions defined by the hard mask layer openings. The etch with hard mask has minimized aspect ratio dependency, so that openings of different sizes may be formed simultaneously. An etch that may be carried out with Freon 134a (C.sub.2 H.sub.2 F.sub.4) to provide superior oxide:nitride selectivity is also disclosed. Additionally, the etch may be carried out at high temperature for improved wall profile without loss of selectivity. For deep openings, a two step etch process is disclosed, with a polymer clean step between the etches to remove polymer build up from first etch, and allow the etch to proceed to an increased depth.

    摘要: A method of fabricating a semiconductor device in which first an aluminum film is etched using a photoresist pattern as a mask, and then the patterned aluminum film is used as a mask for plating to form a pattern of gold plating film. In so doing, if a wiring is formed using a plating process, the problems of deformity of the gold plating film due to degradation of a plating solution, short-circuits between the patterns due to cracks in the plating mask, and re-adhering of etched material when etching the electrical current paths used during the electroplating process, and the problem of sideways etching can be solved.

    摘要: Metallization having a self-aligned diffusion barrier or seed layer is formed in an integrated circuit. In one embodiment of the invention, a sacrificial material (20) is used to define a seed layer (24). A dielectric layer (26) is then formed and the sacrificial material (20) is subsequently removed to expose the underlying seed layer (24). A conductive layer of material (32), such as copper, is then selectively deposited onto the seed layer (24). Because the diffusion barrier or seed layer is self-aligned the metal to metal spacing in an integrated circuit may be reduced. Therefore, integrated circuits having high device packing densities can be fabricated.

    摘要: An improved field implant process is disclosed wherein the field implant is performed after the field oxide isolation structure is fabricated by masking the active surface regions of the substrate with tungsten. The tungsten may be selectively deposited or blanket deposited. The energy of the field implant is controlled and adjusted to produce a maximum number of ions contiguous to a thinnest portion of field oxide with other portions being self-regulating.
