Abstract: A power metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) field effect transistor (FET) has a plurality of transistor cells, each cell having a source region and a drain region to be contacted through a surface of a silicon wafer die, A first dielectric layer is disposed on the surface of the silicon wafer die and a plurality of grooves are formed in the first dielectric layer above the source regions and drain regions, respectively and filled with a conductive material, A second dielectric layer is disposed on a surface of the first dielectric layer and has openings to expose contact areas to the grooves. A metal layer is disposed on a surface of the second dielectric layer and filling the openings, wherein the metal layer is patterned and etched to form separate metal wires connecting each drain region and each source region of the plurality of transistor cells, respectively through the grooves.

Abstract: A method for fabricating semiconductors is provided that includes an oxide chemical mechanical polish (CMP) step. Prior to performing the CMP of an integrated circuit semiconductor silicon wafer, a number of steps are performed. The silicon wafer is scrubbed with a brush using a liquid cleaner. The silicon wafer is rinsed with deionized water (DIW). Finally, the silicon wafer is dried.
