| 摘要 |
The invention relates to a metal line of a semiconductor device and a method of forming the same. According to a method of forming a metal line of a semiconductor device in accordance with an aspect of the invention, a semiconductor substrate in which contact plugs are formed within contact holes of a first dielectric layer is first provided. An etch-stop layer and a hard mask pattern are formed over the first dielectric layer and the contact plugs. The etch-stop layer is patterned along the hard mask pattern. The exposed first dielectric layer and the contact plugs are etched to thereby form trenches in the first dielectric layer over the contact plugs. A metal layer is formed to gap-fill the trenches. A polishing process is performed to expose the etch-stop layer.
