Abstract:
A method of manufacturing an integrated circuit device includes forming an inter-level dielectric layer over a semiconductor substrate, forming a transformative layer over the inter-level dielectric layer, forming a protective layer over the transformative layer without allowing the transformative layer to undergo a substantive transformation, and after forming the protective layer, causing the transformative layer to undergo a volume-increasing transformation. The volume-increasing transformation produces a high density material that provides an effective etch stop.
