Abstract

See full text

Contact with a substrate or conductor underlying an opening in the insulating layer is made by depositing a thin film of high melting point metal using a selective vapor phase growth process so that the metal film grows across the exposed surface and then creeps-up the sidewalls of the insulating layer. Electrical contact is completed by covering the thin film with a thicker growth of high melting point metal, preferably using a second selective vapor phase growth process, and then depositing a conducting film over the insulating layer in electrical contact with the thicker growth of metal.
