    • A method to form elevated source/drain (S/D) over staircase shaped openings in insulating layers. A gate structure is formed over a substrate. The gate structure is preferably comprised of a gate dielectric layer, gate electrode, first spacers, and hard mask. A first insulating layer is formed over the substrate and the gate structure. A resist layer is formed having an opening over the gate structure and over a lateral area adjacent to the gate structure. We etch the insulating layer through the opening in the resist layer. The etching removes a first thickness of the insulating layer to form a source/drain (S/D) opening. We remove the first spacers and hardmask to form a source/drain (S/D) contact opening. We implant ions into the substrate through the source/drain (S/D) contact opening to form lightly doped drain regions. We form second spacers on the sidewalls of the gate electrode and the gate dielectric and on the sidewalls of the insulating layer in the source/drain (S/D) contact opening and the source/drain (S/D) opening. A conductive layer is deposited over the gate electrode, the insulating layer. The conductive layer is planarized to exposed the insulating layer to form elevated source/drain (S/D) blocks on a staircase shape insulating layer.

    • A method of fabricating a dual damascene interconnect structure in a semiconductor device, comprises the following steps. A first level via photo sensitive dielectric layer is deposited and exposed over a semiconductor structure. A first level trench photo sensitive dielectric layer is deposited and exposed over the first via photo sensitive dielectric layer. The exposed first level via photo sensitive dielectric and trench photo sensitive dielectric layers are patterned and etched to form a first level dual damascene opening. The first level dual damascene opening comprises an integral first level via and metal line openings. A first level metal layer is deposited over the first level trench photo sensitive dielectric layer, filling the first level dual damascene opening.

A passivation layer is deposited and patterned over the nth metal dual damascene interconnect layer to form openings in the passivation layer. The n number of via photo sensitive dielectric and trench photo sensitive dielectric layers are stripped and removed beneath the passivation layer openings and between the plurality of dual damascene structures wherein the portion of the via photo sensitive dielectric underneath the horizontal metal lines of the stripped trench photo sensitive dielectric layers remains.

    • This invention relates to the fabrication of integrated circuit devices and more particularly to a method for minimizing the localized mechanical stress problems that can occur when silicided polysilicon gates are used to fabricate narrow channel CMOS devices. The invention addresses the avoidance of typical stress-induced problems in polysilicon gates, such as non-uniform silicide (including bowing, thinning edges, etc.) and voids, which are becoming increasingly worse as gate lengths continue to be reduced. The key to this invention is to spread the highly detrimental mechanical stresses, in narrow silicided gates, over a larger vertical surface area. This is accomplished by using a thin/thick double polysilicon stack for the gate, whereby, the lower thin polysilicon gate layer is not silicided and the upper thick polysilicon layer is subsequently silicided. An insulating layer is used to prevent silicidation of the lower thin polysilicon gate, during silicidation of active source-drain regions. The same insulating layer is also used to avoid another cause of mechanical stress, by protecting the surface grain boundaries of the lower thin polysilicon gate layer from being stuffed with polymer during the dry etching used for spacer formation. The tall stacked gate structure allows the silicide-induced stresses to be more safely located farther away from the active devices.
    • 本发明涉及集成电路器件的制造,更具体地说,涉及一种使硅化多晶硅栅极用于制造窄沟道CMOS器件时可能出现的局部机械应力问题最小化的方法。 本发明解决了避免多晶硅栅极中的典型的应力引起的问题,例如不均匀的硅化物(包括弯曲,变薄边缘等)和空隙,随着栅极长度的不断减小,这些问题变得越来越严重。 本发明的关键是在狭窄的硅化物栅极中,在较大的垂直表面积上传播高度有害的机械应力。 这是通过使用用于栅极的薄/厚双重多晶硅堆叠实现的,由此,下部薄多晶硅栅极层不被硅化,并且随后硅化上部厚多晶硅层。 在有源源极 - 漏极区域的硅化期间,使用绝缘层来防止下部薄多晶硅栅极的硅化。 同样的绝缘层也用于通过在用于间隔物形成的干蚀刻期间保护下部薄多晶硅栅极层的表面晶界不被聚合物填充而避免机械应力的另一个原因。 高堆叠栅极结构允许硅化物引起的应力更安全地远离有源器件。
