ABSTRACT:
An improved and new method for forming a planarized integrated cirsuit structure has been developed. The method uses a combination of etchback and chemical/mechanical polishing (CMP), in which the etchback process uses a tailored mask to compensate for non-unifomity of material removal by the subsequent chemical/mechanical (CMP) process, thereby resulting in improved planarization and superior thickness uniformity.
