A method and system is disclosed for selectively forming a pattern for making openings in a substrate. A first set of openings are formed in a first photoresist layer coated on the substrate using a first mask. A developing bottom antireflective coating (BARC) layer is then formed over the first photoresist with the openings filled therewith. A second photoresist layer is formed over the BARC layer. A second set of openings are formed in the second photoresist layer using a second mask exposing the BARC layer directly underneath. The exposed part of the BARC layer is then removed. Subsequently, one or more openings of the first set in the first photoresist layer, after the exposed part of the BARC layer filled therein is removed, are used for forming the openings in the substrate.

A method of fabricating a dual-damascene structure comprising the following steps. A structure having a patterned low-k material layer formed thereover is provided. The patterned low-k material layer having an upper surface and at least one via hole formed therethrough. A plug material layer is formed over the patterned low-k material layer and filling the at least one via hole. The plug material layer being comprised of a material dissolvable in TMAH or deionized water. The plug material layer is developed to form a plug within the respective at least one via hole having a height below the upper surface of the patterned low-k material layer. The plug is baked to crosslink the plug material comprising the plug. A trench masking layer is formed and patterned to form a patterned trench masking layer having at least one trench substantially centered over the respective at least one via hole and exposing a portion of patterned low-k material layer adjacent the at least one via hole. Wherein the crosslinked plug material comprising the plug does not adversely interact with the trench masking layer. The patterned low-k material layer is etched at the exposed portion using the patterned trench masking layer as a mask to form a trench opening substantially centered over the via hole. The etching of the patterned low-k material layer also removing some of the plug to form a partially etched plug. The trench opening and the via hole comprising a dual-damascene opening. The partially etched plug is removed from the via hole. A planarized dual-damascene structure is formed within the dual-damascene opening.

摘要:
In the manufacture of a semiconductor, a DBARC layer is deposited upon a wafer to prevent reflection. A photo resist layer is deposited upon the DBARC layer and the wafer is selectively exposed to irradiation. The irradiation generates photo acid (H+ ions) in the exposed areas of the photo resist and DBARC. In order to provide better resolution in the DBARC for micro-features, an electric field is generated vertically through the coated wafer before or during post exposure baking (PEB) to create a uniform vertical distribution of H+ ions though the DBARC. The coated wafer is then developed to remove either the unexposed portions, or exposed portion of the DBARC. The cavities formed by the developer have side walls that are substantially vertical as a result of the uniform vertical distribution of the H+ ions.

A new method is provided for the creation of contact holes. The invention provides two masks. The first mask, referred to as the packed mask, comprises the desired contact holes, which are part of the creation of a semiconductor device. To the packed mask are added padding holes in order to increase the hole density of the packed mask. The second mask, referred to an the unpacking mask, comprises openings at the same locations as the locations of the padding holes of the first mask, the openings provided in the second mask have slightly larger dimensions than the padding holes of the first mask. A first exposure is made using the packed mask, a second exposure of the same surface area is made using the unpacking mask. The unpacking mask is used to selectively cover the padding contact holes, resulting in the final image. Two types of unpacking masks can be used, a first type having unpacking holes that surround the desired hole pattern, a second type having unpacking holes that align with the desired hole pattern.
