  • Patent number: 7087998
    Abstract: A method for controlling the position of air gaps in intermetal dielectric layers between conductive lines and a structure formed using such a method. A first dielectric layer is deposited over at least two features and a substrate and an air gap is formed between the at least two features and above the feature height. The first dielectric layer is etched between the at least two features to open the air gap. Then a second dielectric layer is deposited over the etched first dielectric layer to form an air gap between the at least two features and completely below the feature height.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 17, 2004
    Date of Patent: August 8, 2006
    Assignee: ProMOS Technology, Inc.
