  • Patent number: 9230912
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device and a device manufactured using the same are provided. According to the embodiment, substrate with a dielectric layer formed thereon is provided. Plural trenches are defined in the dielectric layer, and the trenches are isolated by the dielectric layer. A first barrier layer is formed in the trenches as barrier liners of the trenches, followed by filling the trenches with a conductor. Then, the conductor in the trenches is partially removed to form a plurality of recesses, wherein remained conductor has a flat surface. Next, a second barrier layer is formed in the recesses as barrier caps of the trenches.
    Type: Grant
