摘要:
A method of an embodiment comprises forming a dielectric layer on a first side of an image sensor substrate, and exposing the dielectric layer to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The image sensor substrate comprises a photo diode. A structure of an embodiment comprises a substrate and a charge-less dielectric. The substrate comprises a photo diode. The charge-less dielectric layer is on a first side of the substrate, and a total charge of the charge-less dielectric results in an average voltage drop of less than 0.2 V across the charge-less dielectric layer.

A wafer cleaning system includes a platform, a plurality of wafer holding units over the platform, a front-end rinse nozzle, and a back-end purge unit. The plurality of wafer holding units is set to define a reference plane of wafer holding. The front-end rinse nozzle is above the reference plane and configured to dispense a first rinse fluid toward the reference plane. The back-end purge unit is below the reference plane and configured to dispense an electrolytic gas

摘要:
A method of forming an interconnect structure includes providing a dielectric layer; forming a metal line in the dielectric layer; and forming a composite etch stop layer (ESL), which includes forming a lower ESL over the metal line and the dielectric layer; and forming an upper ESL over the lower ESL. The upper ESL and the lower ESL have different compositions. The step of forming the lower ESL and the step of forming the upper ESL are in-situ performed.
摘要:
A device includes a semiconductor substrate having a front side and a backside, a photo-sensitive device disposed on the front side of the semiconductor substrate, and a first and a second grid line parallel to each other. The first and the second grid lines are on the backside of, and overlying, the semiconductor substrate. The device further includes an adhesion layer, a metal oxide layer over the adhesion layer, and a high-refractive index layer over the metal layer. The adhesion layer, the metal oxide layer, and the high-refractive index layer are substantially conformal, and extend on top surfaces and sidewalls of the first and the second grid lines.
