ABSTRACT:
A method of forming a salicide pattern for measuring junction leakage current is disclosed. An example method forms device isolation structures on a silicon substrate, forms a well region between the device isolation structures, forms source and drain regions on the well region, and forms a salicide layer on the source and drain regions. The example method also removes some part of the salicide layer, deposits an interlayer dielectric layer on the salicide layer, and forms via holes in the interlayer dielectric layer and filling metal into the via holes to form a via. The example method further planarizes the interlayer dielectric layer and the via, and forms metal interconnects on the interlayer dielectric layer.
