A method of manufacturing a self-aligned contact pad for the fabrication of an integrated circuit is disclosed. A plurality of gate structures is formed on the substrate. A first insulating layer is formed over the plurality of gate structures. Then, a second insulating layer is formed over the first insulating layer and filling spaces between the gate structures. Next, a portion of second insulating layer is removed between the gate structures, thereby forming a plurality of contact holes between the gate structures and exposing a portion of the first insulating layer. The exposed portion of the first insulating layer is etched away to form a gate spacer on the sidewalls of the gate structures and exposing surfaces of active regions of the substrate. Finally, the plurality of contact holes are filled with a first conductive layer and the first conductive layer is planarized to form contact pads.

A self aligned contact (SAC) pad in a semiconductor device and a method for forming thereof wherein an SAC opening is formed concurrently with single-layer gate spacers. After formation of the stacked gate pattern having a gate electrode and a capping layer disposed thereon, an insulating layer for gate spacers is deposited thereon. An interlayer insulating layer then is deposited over the insulating layer. The interlayer insulating layer has an etch selectivity with respect to the capping layer and insulating layer. SAC then are opened in the interlayer insulating layer while concurrently forming single-layer gate spacers.

Self-aligned contact pads in a semiconductor device and a method for forming the same are provided. These self-aligned contact pads can increase the upper surface of the contact pads to increase alignment margins. Portions of the gate mask are undercut, increasing the spaces between the gate structures. As a result, contact pads that are filled in these spaces have an increased upper surface contacting an electrical contact.

A self aligned contact pad in a semiconductor device and a method for forming the self aligned contact pad are disclosed. A bit line contact pad and a storage node contact pad are simultaneously formed by using a photoresist layer pattern having a T-shaped opening including at least two contact regions. An etch stopping layer is formed over a semiconductor substrate and over a transistor. An interlayer dielectric layer is then formed over the etch stopping layer. Next, the interlayer dielectric layer is planarized to have a planar top surface. A mask pattern having a T-shaped opening is then formed over the interlayer dielectric layer, exposing the active region and a portion of the inactive region. The interlayer dielectric layer and etch stopping layer are sequentially etched to reveal a top surface of the semiconductor substrate using the mask pattern, thereby forming a self aligned contact opening exposing a top surface of the semiconductor substrate. The mask pattern is then removed. A conductive layer is formed in the self aligned contact opening and over the interlayer dielectric layer. The conductive layer and the interlayer dielectric layer are planarization-etched to reveal a top surface of the gate mask, thereby forming at least two contact pads.
