ABSTRACT:
A method of forming a metal line pattern for a semiconductor device is provided. The method includes forming a preliminary structure on a semiconductor substrate, having a lower barrier metal layer, a metal layer, and an upper barrier and/or passivation layer having a first thickness; removing a top surface of the passivation layer so that the passivation layer has a second thickness; forming a sub-passivation layer on the passivation layer; forming an adhesion promoter and a photoresist pattern on the sub-passivation layer; and forming a metal line pattern by etching the preliminary structure using the photoresist pattern as an etching mask.
