A method for preventing bonding pads from peeling caused by plug process comprises the following steps. First, a substrate is prepared, and then a first conductor is formed on the substrate. Next, a dielectric layer is formed on the first conductor. After that, a big contact window and a plurality of small contact windows are formed on the dielectric layer, wherein the plurality of small contact windows are located around the big window, and the sizes of the big contact window and small contact windows are over 3 .mu.m. Subsequently, a metal plug layer is formed on the dielectric layer, big contact window and small contact windows. Thereafter, the metal plug layer is etched back to form metal spacers on the sidewalls of the big contact window and small contact windows. Finally, a second conductor is formed on the dielectric layer, big contact window, small contact windows and metal spacers. Since the second conductor is directly connected to the first conductor in the invention, bonding pads peeling can be thoroughly prevented during connecting between the bonding pads and outside pins.
摘要:
A method of fabricating a IC electrical plug, which removes an overhang to prevent formation of voids inside the plug. A transistor with a gate and source/drain terminals is formed on a silicon substrate. A dielectric layer is formed above the silicon substrate. A portion of the dielectric layer is removed by etching to form a contact window, exposing the source region, the drain region, or another conductive material region. A first diffusion barrier layer is formed at the bottom and on the sidewalls of the contact window, and on the top surface of the dielectric layer, overhanging the contact window. A photoresist layer is coated over the substrate filling up the contact window and covering the surface of first diffusion barrier layer. An isotropic etching process is performed to etch away portions of the photoresist layer and the first diffusion barrier layer, exposing the surface of dielectric layer, and leaving the height of the aforementioned layers inside the contact window below the top surface of the dielectric layer. The remaining photoresist layer inside the contact window is removed. A second diffusion barrier layer is formed on the exposed upper sidewalls of the contact window, extending to cover the top surface of the dielectric layer as well. A layer of conductive material filling up the contact window then forms the electrical plug.
