Fabrication of local interconnect lines

摘要

A method of fabricating local interconnect lines (LILs) of a CMOS structures, the method comprising etching an inter layer dielectric (ILD) material of the CMOS structure at a first temperature to form one or more holes and one or more slits; and etching an etch-stop material of the CMOS structure at a second temperature lower than the first temperature to extend the holes and slits to devices of the CMOS structure.
