Abstract
A gap fill treatment for via process is provided. A substrate with a plurality of openings has formed therein is provided. The substrate includes a dense pattern region and an isolated pattern region. A positive resist layer is formed to fill in the openings on the substrate, wherein the thickness of the positive resist layer on the surface of the isolated pattern region is greater than that on the surface of the dense pattern region. The positive resist layer on the surface of the substrate is exposed only. The exposed positive resist layer is developed to form a gap-filling material layer, wherein the gap-filling material layer has the same thickness in the dense pattern region and in the isolated pattern region. A reagent is coated on the surface to form a reaction layer. The reaction layer is removed so that a cap layer remained on the gap-filling material layer.
