Abstract: An etching back process to improve topographic planarization of a polysilicon layer. First, a polysilicon layer is formed to fill a contact hole between two adjacent insulating structures and cover the entire surface of a semiconductor substrate to a predetermined height, in which a sunken portion is formed in the polysilicon layer over the contact hole. Then, a bottom antireflective coating (BARC) layer is formed to fill the sunken portion and cover the entire surface of the polysilicon layer. Next, in a first etching step, the BARC layer outside the sunken portion of the polysilicon layer is removed and the BARC layer in the sunken portion of the polysilicon layer is retained to flatten the bottom of the sunken portion.
