Method for forming zener zap diodes and ohmic contacts in the same integrated circuit
Abstract:
A method for forming an ohmic contact and a zener zap diode in an integrated circuit includes forming a first contact opening in the insulating layer over a first diffusion region to expose the semiconductor substrate; forming a barrier metal layer on the insulating layer and in the first contact opening; forming a second contact opening in the barrier metal layer over a second diffusion region and the insulating layer to expose the semiconductor substrate; forming a third contact opening in the barrier metal layer and the insulating layer over a third diffusion region to expose the semiconductor substrate; forming an aluminum layer on the barrier metal layer and the insulating layer and in the first, second and third contact openings; and patterning the aluminum layer to form the ohmic contact over the first diffusion region and the zener zap diode over the second and third diffusion regions.
