As the integration degree of integrated circuits increases, the number of metal interconnects required by them also increases. Therefore, the design of two or more metal layers has gradually become a method that many integrated circuits must adopt. When the integration degree of integrated circuits continues to increase, the difficulty of manufacturing metal interconnects with good yield and reliability will also increase; the metal damascene method is a method of first etching out metal interconnects in a dielectric layer Trench, and then pour metal into the method of interconnection. This method can meet the requirements of high reliability and high yield interconnection in the process. Therefore, this method will become a sub-quarter micron. The best choice for interconnect manufacturing methods. Figures 1A to 1C are cross-sectional views showing the manufacturing process of a conventional double metal inlay. Referring to FIG. 1A, a substrate 10 is provided, and a conductive layer 14 has been formed on the substrate 10. The conductor layer 14 is used for coupling to other structures (not shown) on the substrate 10 to be conducted. In addition, the conductive layer 14 and the inner metal dielectric layer 12 are formed to prevent the conductive layer Η other structures to be conducted from conducting conduction 'at an unpredicted position. Next, for example, a low-pressure chemical vapor deposition method is used to form an oxide layer 16 to cover the conductor layer 14. And, for example, a low pressure chemical vapor deposition method is used to form an isolation layer 18 to cover the oxide layer 16, wherein the material of the isolation layer 18 is, for example, silicon nitride (Silicon Nitride). Then, for example, a low-pressure chemical vapor deposition method is used to form an oxide layer 20 to cover the isolation layer 18. Next, the last photoresist layer 21 defines the oxide layer 20, and a part of the oxide layer 20 is exposed. The exposed part of the oxide layer 20 corresponds to the conductor layer 14. 3 This paper size applies to China Standards (CNS) A < 4 size (2〗 〇297mm) I installed II, ¾ mouth silk (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Local Shellfish Consumer Cooperative Co., Ltd.

Description of the Invention (>) Please refer to Figure 1B, using the traditional lithography etching technology, to etch the exposed oxide layer 20, and Under-etching passes through the isolation layer 18 to form an opening 22 to expose the oxide layer 16. The photoresist layer 21 is then removed by a method such as an oxygen plasma method. Next, another photoresist layer 24 is further defined as the oxide layer 20, and the opening 22 and a part of the oxide layer 20 are exposed, which further includes a part of the oxide layer 20 on both sides of the opening 22 being exposed. Referring to FIG. 1C, the conventional lithographic etching technique is used to continue etching the oxide layer 16 exposed in the opening 22, so that the opening 22 further exposes the isolation layer 18 and the oxide layer 20 exposed by the photoresist layer 24 is etched A part of the oxide layer 20 on both sides of the opening 22 is formed to form an opening 26 and 28 respectively, and the isolation layer 18 is exposed respectively. The opening 28 further includes an opening 22 exposed. Next, the photoresist layer 24 is removed using, for example, an oxygen plasma method. Then, for example, using a sputtering method or a chemical vapor deposition method, a conductor layer 30 is formed and is inserted into the openings 22 and 28, contacts the conductor layer 14, and is inserted into the opening 26. Then, the subsequent steps are performed to complete the manufacture of the dual metal damascene. However, this subsequent process can be easily completed by those skilled in the art, so it will not be repeated here. However, in this subsequent process, the photoresist and lithography steps are required twice, so the process is more complicated, and the phenomenon of in-focus is easy to occur. Therefore, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a dual metal damascene, which only requires the photoresist and lithography steps to be used once, so the manufacturing process is simple and the phenomenon of inaccurate focusing does not occur. 4 This paper size applies to the national standard (CNS) A4 specification (2 丨 〇297297 mm) ~ ----: ------ meal ------, order ------ 0 (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) 2866twf.doc / 005 A7 B7 Printed by the Central Bureau of Standardization, Shellfish Consumer Cooperative, V. Description of the invention (彡) According to the purpose of the present invention, a double metal inlay is proposed The manufacturing method includes forming an oxide layer with a protruding portion covering the conductive layer on the substrate, and the protruding portion corresponds to the conductive layer. Next, an isolation layer is formed to cover the oxide layer. Then, the protruding portion is removed, for example, using a chemical mechanical honing method to form an opening, where the opening corresponds to the conductor layer. And, perform other subsequent steps. Therefore, the method of the present invention can save the photoresist and lithography steps once compared to the conventional technique, and the manufacturing process is simpler. In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, a preferred embodiment is given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings for detailed description as follows: Brief description of the drawings: FIGS. 1A to 1C FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a manufacturing process of a conventional double metal inlay; and FIGS. 2A to 2C are cross-sectional views showing a manufacturing process of a double metal inlay according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Description of the invention ("/ ·" 57, 61 : Examples of protrusions, and FIGS. 2A to 2C are cross-sectional views showing a manufacturing process of a dual metal inlay according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 2A, a substrate 50 is provided. The substrate 50 has conductor layers 54 and 53 formed thereon. The conductive layer 54 is used for coupling to other structures (not shown) on the substrate 50 to be conducted. In addition, the conductive layer 54 and the inner metal dielectric layer 52 are formed to prevent other conductive structures of the conductive layer 54 from being conducted, and improper conduction is generated at a position that is not preset to be conductive. Among them, the width of the conductor layer 54 is wide, and the width of the conductor layer 53 is narrow. Next, for example, a high density plasma (High Density Plasma; HDP) chemical vapor deposition method is used to form an oxide layer 56 to cover the conductor layers 53 and 54. Because the high-density plasma chemical vapor deposition method has a unique chamfering phenomenon during the deposition process, better protruding portions 57 and 61 will be generated. Among them, the position of the protruding portion 58 corresponds to the conductive layer 54, and the position of the protruding portion 57 corresponds to the conductive layer 53. Also, since the width of the conductor layer 54 is larger than the conductor layer 53, the protrusion height of the protrusion portion 61 is greater than the protrusion height of the protrusion portion 57. Then, for example, a low-pressure chemical vapor deposition method is used to form an isolation layer 58 covering the oxide layer 56, wherein the material of the isolation layer 58 is, for example, silicon nitride or silicon oxynitride. Wherein, the isolation layer 58 will fluctuate with the surface of the oxide layer 56, and the raised portion of the isolation layer 58 corresponds to the protruding portions 57 and 6.

Since the height of the protruding portion 57 is not high, the honing step does not remove the isolation layer 58 corresponding to the protruding portion 57. In addition, the remaining isolation layer 58 and the exposed oxidation layer 56 are positioned at approximately the same height. Then, for example, using a low-pressure chemical vapor deposition method, an oxide layer 60 is formed to cover the isolation layer 58 and the exposed oxide layer 56. A feature of the present invention is to use a chemical mechanical honing method to remove the isolation layer 58 corresponding to the protruding portion 59 to form the opening 59, so that the photoresist and lithography steps can be saved in one step compared with the conventional technique. Also, when the conductor layer 54 and the conductor layer 54 have both a high protrusion portion and a lower protrusion portion at the same time. This honing step will only allow openings to be formed on the higher protrusions and will not form openings on the fewer protrusions. Therefore, when another conductor layer is deposited in a subsequent step, it is possible to avoid an inappropriate conduction between this conductor layer and the underlying conductor layer. The last photoresist layer 62 defines an oxide layer 60. This photoresist layer 62 exposes the oxide layer 60 corresponding to the opening 59. And the area exposed by the photoresist layer 62 is larger than the opening 59, so the isolation layers 58 on both sides of the opening 59 are also exposed. Then, the conventional lithographic etching technique is used to etch the oxide layer 60 to form an opening 64, which further includes an oxide layer 56 exposed further down the uranium etched opening 59, so that the opening 59 further exposes the conductor layer 54. Then, for example, a sputtering method or a chemical vapor deposition method is used to form a conductive layer 68 which is inserted into the opening 59 to contact the conductive layer 54 and covers the isolation layer 58 exposed by the opening 64. Among them, the material of the conductor layer 68 is, for example, tungsten. 7 This paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) —.— < ------ install— (Please read the precautions on the back first Fill out this page again) Order 2866twf.d〇c / 005 A7 B7 -------V.

However, this subsequent process is not related to the features of the present invention, so it will not be repeated here. Therefore, the features of the present invention include forming an oxide layer 56 using a high-density plasma chemical vapor deposition method and a plasma gain chemical vapor deposition method, and then forming an isolation layer 58 to generate the protruding portion 57. Next, the large protruding portion of the isolation layer 58 is removed by a chemical mechanical honing method to form an opening 59.
