    摘要: A self-aligned structure and method of etching contact holes in the self-aligned structure are described. The dielectric materials, etching methods, and etchants are chosen to provide high selectivity etching. The structure comprises an electrode with a silicon oxy-nitride cap and silicon oxy-nitride spacers on the sidewalls of the electrode and the cap. An etch stop layer of silicon nitride is deposited over the substrate covering the spacers and cap. A layer of silicon oxide is deposited over the etch stop layer. Etching methods and etchants are used which provide a ratio of the etching rate of silicon oxide to the etching rate of silicon nitride or silicon oxy-nitride of at least eight and a ratio of the etching rate of silicon nitride to the etching rate of silicon oxy-nitride of at least two.

    摘要: A method for forming a dual damascene structure in a carbon-based, low-K material. The process begins by providing a semiconductor structure having a first metal pattern thereover, wherein the first metal pattern has a first barrier layer thereon. An organic dielectric layer is formed on the first barrier layer, and a hard mask layer is formed on the dielectric layer. The hard mask layer and the dielectric layer are patterned to form a trench. A second barrier layer is formed over the hard mask layer and on the bottom and sidewalls of the trench. A barc layer is formed over the second barrier layer, thereby filling the trench. The barc layer, the second barrier layer, and the dielectric layer are patterned to form a via opening, preferably using a photoresist mask. The barc layer is patterned without faceting the edges of the via opening due to the second barrier layer. The barc layer and the etch mask are removed by the dielectric layer etch. The first barrier layer and the second barrier layer are removed. A third barrier layer is formed on the bottom and sidewalls of the trench, on the sidewalls of the via opening, and on the first metal pattern through the via opening. The trench and the via opening are filled with metal to form a damascene structure.
