摘要:
A deep ultraviolet (UV) light-resistant photoresist plug for via holes, as may be used in damascene, dual-damascene, and other types of semiconductor fabrication processing, is disclosed. A via hole of a semiconductor wafer is partially plugged with non-photosensitive photoresist, such as negative photoresist. The via hole and the wafer are then coated with a deep UV light-sensitive photoresist. The deep UV light-sensitive photoresist is exposed to deep UV light, such as 193 nanometer (nm) wavelength light, where the non-photosensitive photoresist is unresponsive to the deep UV light. The wafer is then developed to selectively remove the deep UV light-sensitive photoresist, where the non-photosensitive photoresist substantially remains.
摘要:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor device is illustrated. A substrate having a plurality of trenches is provided. The plurality of trenches include trenches having differing widths. A first layer is formed on the substrate including in the plurality of trenches. Forming the first layer creates an indentation in the first layer in a region overlying a trench (e.g., wide trench). A second layer is formed in the indentation. The first layer is etched while the second layer remains in the indentation. The second layer may protect the region of indentation from further reduction in thickness. In an embodiment, the first layer is polysilicon and the second layer is BARC of photoresist.
