Abstract
A method for forming a semiconductor device includes: providing a structure having a first stop layer formed above a substrate, a first dielectric layer formed on the first stop layer, a second stop layer formed on the first dielectric layer, and conductive lines formed in the first dielectric layer and spaced apart from each other; forming a first dummy layer on the second stop layer; patterning the first dummy layer to form a first patterned dummy layer; forming a second dummy layer on the first dummy layer to form a first trench; etching back the second dummy layer and the first patterned dummy layer to form a second trench, wherein the second trench is self-aligned with the first trench. The second trench extends downwardly to the first dielectric layer and forms an opening at the second stop layer.
