    摘要: Provided is a polishing apparatus which comprises a polishing mechanism for polishing a wafer taken out from a cassette, an attaching-detaching device for attaching to and detaching the wafer from the polishing mechanism, a device for cleaning the polished wafer, and a transportation device for transporting the wafer between the cassette, polishing mechanism, attaching-detaching device, and cleaning device. These devices are arranged individually in compartments. A working chamber is divided into a plurality of compartments by means of partitioning devices. A device for polishing a workpiece is set in one of the compartments. The apparatus is also provided with communication devices for internally connecting the adjacent compartments which are divided by the partitioning devices. The apparatus may further comprise devices for individually controlling the respective internal pressures of the compartments or a device for generating an air flow in the form of a laminar flow in each of the compartments.

    摘要: Measurement of temperature - internal stress characteristics of an Al thin film formed on an Si substrate is performed. The amount of an impurity or impurities mixed in the thin f ilm can be obtained in accordance with the measured characteristics. A migration start temperature of Al atoms in the thin film in the characteristics obtained when the temperature is increased is fed back as information to the thin film formation step, thereby controlling an impurity amount in an atmosphere for forming the thin film.

    摘要: A method for planarizing the surface of an insulation layer deposited on a first interconnection layer to allow a second interconnection layer deposited thereon without causing a breakage of the second interconnection layer. This method is characterized in that at least two insulation films, different in etching characteristics each other, are first formed on the first interconnection layer, and then a resist layer is deposited on the second insulating film. Subsequently, a portion of the resist layer is etched to expose the top surface of the second insulating film, and the second insulating film is selectively and anisotropically etched using the remaining resist layer as a mask. After removing the first insulating film and the remaining resist mark, a third insulating film is deposited to a thickness sufficient to make flat the surface thereof.

    摘要: A conductive film is formed on first and second prospective lower wiring layer formation regions on a semiconductor substrate and a prospective isolation region between the lower wiring layers. An insulating interlayer is formed on the semiconductor substrate including this conductive film and is partially removed to obtain an opening in which the conductive film is exposed. In addition, an upper wiring layer is formed on the upper surface of the semiconductor substrate. The conductive film and an upper wiring portion located on the conductive film are simultaneously and selectively removed to obtain isolated upper layer portions and isolated conductive film portions. Alternatively, two wiring portions each having at least two lower wiring portions electrically insulated from each other and adjacent to each other are formed on a semiconductor substrate having a stepped portion, and an insulating interlayer is formed thereon. The insulating interlayer is removed until the first and second wiring portions are exposed. In addition, the stepped portion formed in the second wiring portion is buried with a third insulating film. A method of forming a highly reliable multilayered wiring structure at a high yield can be obtained.
