Abstract: Disclosed is a CMOS image sensor, which can minimize a reflectance of light at an interface between a photodiode and an insulating film, thereby enhancing image sensitivity. Such a CMOS image sensor includes a substrate provided with a photodiode consisting of Si, an insulating film consisting of SiO2 and formed on the substrate, a semi-reflection film interposed between the substrate and the insulating film, and metal interconnections, color filters and micro lenses constituting individual unit pixels. The semi-reflection film has a refraction index value between those of the Si photodiode and the SiO2 insulating film.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. A barrier metal layer for blocking a metal material from being diffused into an insulating film is formed by means of an ALD method. At this time, the barrier metal layer is formed to have an amorphous structure and the barrier metal layer at the bottom of a contact hole or a via hole is selectively removed so that the barrier metal layer having good anti-diffusion properties even in a thin thickness is obtained. Therefore, it is possible to prevent resistance from increasing due to the barrier metal layer.

Abstract: A method for forming a metal line of a semiconductor device is disclosed, which improves a crystal structure of a Cu line 111 to improve electro-migration characteristics and reliability. The method includes forming a trench on a substrate by patterning an insulating interlayer. A barrier metal film is formed on the trench and the insulating interlayer. A seed Cu film is formed on the barrier metal film. A PVD metal film is formed on the seed Cu film by a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process. An electroplated metal film is deposited on the PVD metal film to fill the trench. Lastly, a metal line is formed in the trench by removing the films to expose the insulating interlayer on either side of the metal line in the trench.
