Abstract

See full text

A silicon oxide film is formed on a silicon substrate with a diffusion layer, and a contact hole is formed in the silicon oxide film. A protective film made of an oxide film and a nitride film is formed over the whole surface of the substrate, and the contact hole is buried with a BPSG film. Another silicon oxide film is deposited over the substrate and an interconnection trench is formed in this silicon oxide film. After the BPSG film is removed, a TiN/Ti film is formed over the whole surface of the substrate. A Cu film is grown by MO-CVD, and thereafter the Cu film and TiN/Ti film on the surface of the substrate are partially removed by CMP. A highly reliable contact plug and a trench burying higher level interconnection are formed even where contacts are margin-less or where alignment errors are present.
