Abstract
A metal via contact of a semiconductor device and a method for fabricating the same, wherein the method includes sequentially forming a first insulating layer, a low dielectric SOG (Spin On Glass) layer, a second insulating layer and a silicon oxynitride (SiON) layer on a semiconductor substrate forming a photoresist pattern, using the photoresist pattern as an etching mask and wet etching the silicon oxynitride layer and a portion of the second insulating layer, using the same photoresist pattern as an etching mask and anisotropically etching remainder second insulating layer, the low dielectric SOG layer and the first insulating layer to form a via hole exposing a predetermined portion of the semiconductor substrate, removing the photoresist pattern, using radio frequency (RF) etching to remove a reverse slope of the via hole and forming a metal plug in the via hole.
