  • Forming planarized semiconductor structures
    Publication number: 20060098524
    Abstract: A planarized surface may be formed by initially forming an aperture through an insulating layer. The insulating layer and its aperture may be conformally coated with a conductive material that ultimately acts as a planarization stop. The conductive material may then be covered with another insulator that fills the remainder of the aperture. Thereafter, the structure may be planarized down to the conductive layer that acts as a planarization stop.
    Type: Application
    Filed: December 16, 2005
    Publication date: May 11, 2006
    Inventors: Daniel Xu, Tyler Lowrey, Jong-Won Lee, Kyu Min, Donghui Lu, Jenn Chow
