<p>A process for the formation of pillars (28) in connection with the fabrication of a semiconductor device (10) is disclosed. The process first aligns a lead pattern (30) with an existing structure (24) in the semiconductor device (10). Next, the process aligns a pillar pattern (32) with the lead pattern (30). These two patterns (30, 32) are then transferred downward into respective conductive layers (26, 28) of the semiconductor device (10). An insulating layer (34) is deposted over the conductive layers (26, 28) and etched-back to expose a portion of the pillar (28). A conductive layer (42) is applied over the exposed pillar (28).</p> |
