ABSTRACT:
A process for fabricating multilayer connection which provides a flattened surface of an interlayer insulating film and realizes a highly reliable semiconductor device, including: forming an interlayer dielectric film on a lower layer connection and forming an aperture portion in the interlayer dielectric film, the aperture portion being connected to the lower layer connection; forming a metallic film on the entire surface of the interlayer dielectric film inclusive of the aperture portion, thereby filling the aperture portion with a material constituting the metallic film; removing the metallic film from the interlayer dielectric film by etching, except for the metallic film material left over inside the aperture portion; flattening the surface by applying chemical mechanical polishing to the upper surface of the interlayer dielectric film; and forming an upper layer connection on the interlayer dielectric film, the upper layer connection being connected to the metallic film material left over inside the aperture portion.
