Description of the invention (/) The invention relates to a semiconductor device manufacturing process, and in particular to a damascene. Manufacturing method of structure. In today's semiconductor processes, since the conductor material is buried in the dielectric layer to form a wire or a damascene process to form a contact / via window, there is no processing technology when the conductor material changes. It must be changed accordingly, and the method for forming an opening in the dielectric layer can be implemented by a mature plasma etching method (Plasma Etching) or a reactive ion etching method (Reactive Icn Etch, RIE), and combined with a chemical mechanical honing method The use of (Chemical Mechanical Polishing, CMP) may be able to achieve the advantages of comprehensive planarization of the dielectric layer, etc. Therefore, the process of forming a damascene structure by a damascene process and a chemical mechanical honing method is a very attractive technology. The conventional method for forming a damascene structure using the above technique is to form a dielectric layer on a substrate on which a conductive region has been formed, and then to form a honing stop layer on the dielectric layer. Next, an opening is formed in the honing stop layer and the dielectric layer. The opening may be one of a contact window opening, a dielectric window opening, a wire trench, a damascene opening, etc., and exposes the conductive area of the substrate. A metal layer is then deposited on the entire surface of the substrate and fills the opening. Finally, the metal layer outside the opening is removed by chemical mechanical honing. However, the mosaic structure formed by the above process has the following problems: It is known that the honing termination layer formed is close to the honing selection ratio of the metal layer. When the metal layer is honed by a chemical mechanical honing method, And when honing to the honing stop layer, in areas with high pattern density on the wafer, the metal layer and the honing stop layer have similar honing removal rates and pattern density (Pattern (Please read the note on the back first) ?
