摘要:
A semiconductor substrate having an etch stop layer and at least a dielectric layer disposed from bottom to top is provided. The dielectric layer and the etching stop layer is then patterned to form a plurality of openings exposing the semiconductor substrate. A dielectric thin film is subsequently formed to cover the dielectric layer, the sidewalls of the openings, and the semiconductor substrate. The dielectric thin film disposed on the dielectric layer and the semiconductor substrate is then removed while the dielectric thin film disposed on the sidewalls remains.

A method of fabricating openings is disclosed. First, a semiconductor substrate having a salicide region thereon is provided. An etch stop layer and at least a dielectric layer are disposed on the semiconductor substrate from bottom to top. Second, the dielectric layer and the etching stop layer are patterned to form a plurality of openings in the dielectric layer and in the etching stop layer so that the openings expose the salicide region. Then, a dielectric thin film covering the dielectric layer, sidewalls of the openings and the salicide region is formed. Later, the dielectric thin film disposed on the dielectric layer and on the salicide region is removed.

An opening structure is disclosed. The opening structure includes: a semiconductor substrate; at least one dielectric layer disposed on the semiconductor substrate, wherein the dielectric layer has a plurality of openings exposing the semiconductor substrate, and each of the openings has a sidewall; a dielectric thin film covering at least a portion of the sidewall of each of the openings; an etch stop layer disposed between the semiconductor substrate and the dielectric layer and extending partially into the openings to isolate the dielectric thin film from the semiconductor substrate; and a metal layer filled in the openings.

A mark structure for measuring the alignment accuracy between a former layer and a latter layer with electron beam inspection (EBI) is described. The mark structure includes multiple divisions, each of which includes at least one region that includes multiple parts each disposed with a pair of a pattern of the former layer and a pattern of the latter layer. In each region, all of the parts have the same distance in a direction between the pattern of the former layer and the pattern of the latter layer. The distance in the direction is varied over the regions of the divisions of the mark structure.

A defect inspection method is disclosed. A first type defect inspection system is used to perform a first defect inspection by aligning to an alignment mark on a wafer as a reference point for the first defect inspection. A fabrication process is performed on the wafer thereafter, and a second defect inspection is performed by using a second type defect inspection system to align the alignment mark on the wafer as the reference point for the second defect inspection.
