ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure relates generally to the manufacturing of semiconductor devices. In one example, a method for forming a portion of a semiconductor device includes forming a photo sensitive layer over a substrate, developing the photo sensitive layer to expose a portion of the substrate and to create a seed layer from at least a portion of the photo sensitive layer remaining after the developing, forming an etch stop layer only on the seed layer, and etching the substrate using the etch stop layer as a mask.
