Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform the sure liftoff by giving a level difference by subjecting a substrate to coating with an electrode metallic layer and liftoff treatment after coating the substrate with the second insulating film and a spacer layer for liftoff in order and removing the insulating film by etching using the spacer layer as a mask. CONSTITUTION:An SiO2 film 3 on which an opening 2 for formation of an electrode, an SiO2 film 4 and a photoresist film 5 as a spacer for liftoff are formed. By anisotrophic etching of the SiO2 film 4 which is exposed in an opening 6, a vetical cut plane can be obtained. After that, the SiO2 film 4 is etched in horizontal direction by etching using a mixed solution of hydrofluoric acid and the film 5 overhangs in eaves form. For example, when an aluminum layer 7 is vapor-deposited, an aluminum layer 8 which is spread on the photoresist film 5 is surely separated from the aluminum layer 7 spread on a surface part of a semiconductor substrate 1 and the sufficient level difference (h) is given between these layers.

Conventional Structures and Problems One of the methods for forming electrodes of semiconductor devices is the lift-off method. In this method, before forming the electrode metal film, a spacer such as a photoresist layer with an electrode pattern forming part opened is formed on the semiconductor substrate, an electrode metal layer is deposited on the entire surface, and then the spacer is removed. This is a method in which the electrode metal layer deposited thereon is also removed, leaving the electrode metal layer deposited in the opening of the spacer on the semiconductor substrate and used as an electrode or an electrode wiring layer.

According to this method, pattern etching for the electrode metal layer is not required, and the pattern accuracy of the electrode is basically determined by the accuracy of photolithography for forming the spacer. Further, even if the entire electrode metal layer is formed of gold ingots that are difficult to etch, a desired electrode pattern can be easily obtained. However, in this lift-off method, the 4'4 image resolution, which increases the thickness of the photoresist layer serving as the spacer, is reduced, and therefore it is not possible to provide a spacer with a sufficient thickness.

Structure of the Invention The method for manufacturing a semiconductor device of the present invention includes forming a second insulating film and a surface of an electrode wiring layer on a semiconductor substrate or a semiconductor substrate covered with a first insulating film having an opening for forming an electrode. After sequentially depositing the lift-off spacer layers, at least a portion of the lift-off spacer layer located above the opening of the first insulating film is removed, and then, using the lift-off spacer layer as a mask, the second insulating film is deposited. This is a method in which the film is removed by etching, followed by deposition of a super metal layer and lift-off treatment. According to this manufacturing method, the second insulating film provides a sufficient step +j between the electrode metal layer on the lift-off spacer and the remaining electrode metal layer, so that reliable lift-off can be performed.
