Provided are a metal interconnect of a semiconductor device and a method of fabricating the metal interconnect. The metal interconnect includes a metal line having a first end and a second end disposed on an opposite side to the first end, a via electrically connected to the metal line, and a non-active segment extending from the first end and including a void. Tensile stress is decreased to prevent a void from occurring under the via. Accordingly, line breakage due to electromigration is substantially prevented, thus improving electrical characteristics of the device.

A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a stacked structure on a substrate, forming a first interlayer dielectric covering the stacked structure, and forming a second interlayer dielectric covering the first interlayer dielectric. The stacked structure includes a stepwise shape. The first interlayer dielectric includes at least one step portion having a slope surface connecting a first top surface to a second top surface. The first top surface and the sloped surface define a first angle that is an obtuse angle. A level of the second top surface is higher than a level of the first top surface.

A method of forming a semiconductor device is disclosed. A dielectric layer having a opening therein is formed on a semiconductor substrate. An inner surface of the opening is treated by plasma. A barrier metal layer is formed on the plasma-treated inner surface of the opening. A seed layer is formed on the barrier metal layer. A metal bulk layer is formed on the seed layer. High quality semiconductor devices can be fabricated by using these methods, which may stably fill the opening formed in the dielectric layer.

摘要:
Methods of forming field effect transistors include forming a metal alloy gate electrode (e.g., aluminum alloy) containing about 0.5 to about 1.0 atomic percent silicon, on a substrate, and electroless plating an electrically conductive gate protection layer directly on at least a portion of an upper surface of the metal alloy gate electrode. A gate dielectric layer may be formed on the substrate. This gate dielectric layer may have a dielectric constant greater than a dielectric constant of silicon dioxide. The forming of the metal alloy gate electrode may include forming a metal alloy gate electrode directly on an upper surface of the gate dielectric layer.
