    摘要: A wafer metrology structure for measuring both critical dimension features of multiple patterns of a semiconductor device and overlay measurements of one pattern with respect to another. The measurements are readable by a single, one-dimensional scan of a metrology system. The wafer metrology structure includes at least a first feature of a first dimension formed in a first level of the semiconductor device. The first dimension is identical to a first critical dimension of a pattern formed in the corresponding first level. A wafer metrology pattern according to the present invention also includes a second pattern of a second dimension formed in a second level of the semiconductor device. The second pattern includes an aperture superposed over the first feature. The aperture exposes at least the first feature having a critical dimension of the first pattern and thus enables a metrology system to directly measure the first feature through the aperture. The second pattern also includes a feature having a second dimension identical to a second critical dimension of the second pattern formed in the corresponding second level.

    摘要: A structure and process are described for facilitating the conduction of heat away from a semiconductor device. Thermally conductive planes and columns are incorporated within the back-end structure and around the interconnect outside the chip. A thermally conductive plane is formed by forming a first insulating layer on an underlying layer of the device; forming a recess in the insulating layer; filling the recess with a thermally conductive material to form a lateral heat-dissipating layer; planarizing the heat-dissipating layer to make the top surface thereof coplanar with the unrecessed portion of the insulating layer; and forming a second insulating layer on the first insulating layer and the heat-dissipating layer, thereby embedding the heat-dissipating layer between the first and second insulating layers. The heat-dissipating layer is electrically isolated from the underlying layer of the device, and preferably is electrically grounded.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing an optical projection reticle employs a damascene process. First feature recesses are etched into a projection reticle mask plate which is transmissive or transparent. Then feature recesses are tilled with a radiation transmissivity modifying material comprising a partially transmissive material and/or a radiation absorber for absorbing actinic radiation. Sacrificial materials may be added to the recess temporarily prior to filling the recess to provide gaps juxtaposed with the material filling the recess. Thereafter, the sacrificial materials are removed. Then the projection mask is planarized leaving feature recesses filled with transmissivity modifying material, and any gaps desired. The projection mask is planarized while retained in a fixture holding it in place during polishing with a polishing tool and a slurry.
