ABSTRACT:
A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes: forming a first inter-layer insulation layer over a substrate where a plurality of first contact holes are formed; forming a conductive layer over the first inter-layer insulation layer to fill the first contact holes; etching the conductive layer such that a surface of the first inter-layer insulation layer is higher than that of the conductive layer, whereby a plurality of contact plugs filling the first contact holes are formed; and forming an etch stop layer more thickly over the surfaces of the contact plugs than the surface of the first inter-layer insulation layer.
