  • Patent number: 9305833
    Abstract: A method is provided for fabricating a semiconductor structure. The method includes providing a substrate; and forming a conductive layer in one surface of the substrate. The method also includes forming a dielectric layer on the surface of the substrate; and forming an opening exposing a portion of the conductive layer in the dielectric layer. Further, the method includes forming a passivation layer for protecting the portion of the conductive layer on a surface of the portion of the conductive layer on the bottom of the opening using a passivation solution; and cleaning inner surface of the opening using a cleaning solution not reacting with the passivation layer. Further, the method also includes removing the passivation layer; and forming a metal layer connecting with the conductive layer in the opening.
