Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a first lower wiring line on the substrate, a first insulation layer on the first lower wiring line, a first dielectric barrier layer and a first etch stop layer sequentially stacked on the first insulation layer, a second insulation layer on the first etch stop layer, a first upper wiring line extending through the second insulation layer, the first etch stop layer, and the first dielectric barrier layer, and a first conductive via in the first insulation layer and electrically connecting the first lower wiring line and the first upper wiring line. An upper surface of the first conductive via protrudes above a lower surface of the first upper wiring line.
Abstract:
A fabricating method of a semiconductor device includes providing a substrate having a first region and a second region, forming a plurality of first gates in the first region of the substrate, such that the first gates are spaced apart from each other at a first pitch, forming a plurality of second gates in the second region of the substrate, such that the second gates are spaced apart from each other at a second pitch different from the first pitch, implanting an etch rate adjusting dopant into the second region to form implanted regions, while blocking the first region, forming a first trench by etching the first region between the plurality of first gates, and forming a second trench by etching the second region between the plurality of second gates.
Abstract:
Example embodiments relate to a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, wherein a metal gate electrode therein may be formed without a void in a lower portion of the metal gate electrode. The method may include providing a substrate, forming a dummy gate electrode on the substrate, forming a gate spacer on the substrate to be contiguous to the dummy gate electrode, forming a first recess by simultaneously removing a portion of the dummy gate electrode and a portion of the gate spacer, the first recess having an upper end wider than a lower end, forming a second recess by removing the dummy gate electrode remaining after forming the first recess, and forming a metal gate electrode by depositing a metal to fill the first and second recesses.
