摘要: A backside illumination (BSI) image sensor and a method of forming the same are provided. A method includes forming a plurality of photosensitive pixels in a substrate, the substrate having a first surface and a second surface, the second surface being opposite the first surface, the substrate having one or more active devices on the first surface. A first portion of the second surface is protected. A second portion of the second surface is patterned to form recesses in the substrate. An anti-reflective layer is formed on sidewalls of the recesses. A metal grid is formed over the second portion of the second surface, the anti-reflective layer being interposed between the substrate and the metal grid.

摘要: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor structure is provided. An interlayer dielectric layer is formed conformally over protruding structures formed over a silicon substrate and a surface of the silicon substrate. Next, a vaporized chemical etching operation is performed to the interlayer dielectric layer, so as to form a gap between two adjacent protruding structures. The gap has a target aspect ratio of at least 4, a top portion of the interlayer dielectric layer above an upper portion of each of the at least two protruding structures is trimmed at a first etching rate, and a bottom portion of the interlayer dielectric layer above a base portion of each of the at least two protruding structures is etched at a second etching rate smaller than the first etching rate, for enlarging the deposition process window and preventing voids from remaining inside a gap filling material in the gap.

摘要: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards an integrated circuit (IC) including an interconnect structure overlying a substrate. The interconnect structure has a plurality of metal layers overlying over the substrate. A first dielectric layer overlies an uppermost surface of the interconnect structure. The first dielectric layer has opposing sidewalls defining a trench. A first magnetic layer is disposed within the trench and conformally extends along the opposing sidewalls. Conductive wires are disposed within the trench and overlie the first magnetic layer. A second magnetic layer overlies the first magnetic layer and the conductive wires. The second magnetic layer laterally extends from over a first sidewall of the opposing sidewalls to a second sidewall of the opposing sidewalls.
