Method of making semiconductor device
Abstract
A semiconductor device is manufactured by a method including forming a first interlayer insulating film. A first etching stopper film is formed on the first interlayer insulating film. A conductive layer is formed on the first etching stopper film. A second etching stopper film is formed to cover the conductive layer, an upper surface of the conductive layer and both side surfaces of the conductive layer. A second interlayer insulating film is formed on the second etching stopper film. A hole is formed penetrating the second interlayer insulating film in a direction of thickness and reaching the conductive layer. An interconnect is formed in the hole. The step of forming a hole includes etching the second interlayer insulating film under a first etching condition, and etching the second etching stopper film under a second etching condition different from the first etching condition. The second etching condition includes using an etching gas containing C, F, and H.
