Abstract
A method of forming a multi-layer interconnection is provided by which a resist pattern can be precisely formed by maintaining a uniform resist pattern film thickness and such problems as reduced electric resistance of a connecting portion and defective connection between a first interconnection layer and a second interconnection layer will not occur by ensuring a sufficient diameter of a contact hole. The method includes the steps of: removing a portion of an insulating layer having a main surface and covering a first conductive layer to form a hole reaching the first conductive layer in the insulating layer; forming an organic layer at least filling the hole; removing a portion of the insulating layer at a portion at which the insulating layer contacts an organic layer filling the hole; removing the organic layer filling the hole to form a recessed portion continuous to the hole in the insulating layer; and forming a second conductive layer in such a manner that it fills the hole and the recessed portion.
