When forming metallization layers of advanced semiconductor devices, one often has to fill apertures with a high aspect ratio with a metal, such as copper. The present disclosure provides a convenient method for forming apertures with a high aspect ratio in an insulating layer. This insulating layer may have been deposited on the surface of a semiconductor device. The proposed method relies on an ion implantation step performed on the insulating layer, followed by an etch, which is preferably a wet etch.
