Latest Patents
Trivkovic holds a patent titled "Methods for forming conductive paths and vias." This patent discloses a method of forming conductive paths and vias through a series of intricate processes. In one aspect, patterns of a hard mask layer are transferred into a dielectric layer by etching to form trenches. The trenches define locations for conductive paths of an upper metallization level. At least one trench is interrupted in a longitudinal direction by a block portion of the hard mask layer, which defines the tip-to-tip location of a pair of conductive paths to be formed. The trenches extend partially through the dielectric layer in regions exposed by the hard mask layer, thereby deepening the first and second holes to extend completely through the dielectric layer. After removing the hard mask layer, the deepened first and second holes and the trenches are filled with a conductive material to form the conductive paths in the trenches and to form the vias in the deepened first and second holes. This innovative method has the potential to improve the manufacturing processes in electronics.
