[0116] Different from the first embodiment of the present invention, in the second embodiment of the present invention, at least three grooves need to be formed: a first groove, a second groove adjacent to the first groove, and a groove adjacent to the first groove. The third trench adjacent to the second trench and spaced apart from the first trench forms the first metal line layer, the second trench and the second trench respectively located in the first trench, the second trench and the third trench. The metal line layer and the third metal line layer; the first insulating layer and part of the interlayer dielectric layer between the first metal line layer and the second metal line layer are removed to form an opening, while the second metal line layer remains and the first insulating layer and the interlayer dielectric layer between the third metal line layer.

Abstract

The invention provides a forming method of a semiconductor device. The forming method comprises steps of providing a substrate, forming a first insulating layer, an interlayer dielectric layer and at least two grooves which penetrate through the interlayer dielectric layer and the first insulating layer in thickness on the surface of the substrate in sequence, filling the grooves with conductive materials to form a metal wire layer, forming a first mask layer which covers the metal wire layer by the adoption of the self alignment forming technology of metal, wherein the first mask layer covers a part, close to the metal wire layer, of the interlayer dielectric layer, using the first mask layer as a mask to remove the interlayer dielectric layer and the first insulating layer to form an opening, and removing the first mask layer to form a second insulating layer which covers the metal wire layer and the interlayer dielectric layer and stretches across the opening. The semiconductor device formed by means of the forming method is provided with a large air gap, reduces a K value in an interconnection structure, reduces an RC effect, and improves the performance of a semiconductor integrated circuit.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a semiconductor device and a forming method thereof. Background technique [0002] As the semiconductor industry enters a new era of high-performance and multi-functional integrated circuits, the density of components in integrated circuits will increase, while the size of components and the spacing between parts or components will decrease accordingly. In the past, it was only limited by the ability of lithographic technology to define the structure, and it was difficult to reduce the geometric size of the device. With the development of technology, the size of existing devices can be made smaller, but there are more and more limiting factors. For example, when the distance between the conductive patterns decreases, the capacitance generated by any two adjacent conductive patterns will increase. This increased capacitance results in increased capacitive coup...
