Inter-metal dielectric film composition for dual damascene process

摘要

The use of an intermetal dielectric (IMD) layer and an organic etch-stop layer are disclosed in forming a dual damascene in order to reduce the RC delay and the overall dielectric constant of the damascene interconnect. The disclosed IMD layer is an FSG and the etch-stop layer is an organic spin-on-glass (SOG). A dual damascene structure utilizing the IMD layer and the organic etch-stop layer is also disclosed.
