Abstract
The present disclosure provides a self-aligned two-time forming method capable of preventing sidewalls from being deformed, comprises sequentially growing a first silicon nitride layer, a first silicon oxide layer, a titanium nitride layer, a second silicon oxide layer, a second silicon nitride layer and a polysilicon layer on a via layer from bottom to top; defining a pattern by using the polysilicon layer as a hard mask, and etching the second silicon nitride layer to an upper surface of the second silicon oxide layer to form a plurality of silicon nitride pattern structures from the second silicon nitride layer; forming sidewalls on sidewalls of the plurality of silicon nitride pattern structures; removing the silicon nitride pattern structures in the sidewalls; etching the silicon nitride layer and the titanium nitride layer by using the sidewalls as a hard mask to form a titanium nitride pattern structure.
