发明名称 Planarization process
摘要 Planarization processing methods are disclosed. In one aspect, the method includes patterning a material layer and planarizing the patterned material layer by using sputtering. Due to the patterning of the material layer, the loading requirements of nonuniformity on a substrate for sputtering the material layer are reduced, compared with that before the patterning.

主权项 1. A method of planarizing a material layer formed on a substrate, comprising: patterning the material layer, wherein the patterning is stopped near a substantially lowest portion of a top surface of the material layer to leave some protrusions above the lowest portion of the top surface; and planarizing the patterned material layer by sputtering, wherein the, patterning of the material layer results in a loading condition for the sputtering on the material layer having a lower non-uniformity across the substrate than that before the patterning.
