Abstract
A method of fabricating an interconnect of a capacitor. A substrate having a capacitor is provided. The capacitor comprises a bottom electrode electrically connected to the substrate, a dielectric layer and a top electrode thereon. A spin-on dielectric layer is formed on the substrate and the capacitor. The spin-on dielectric layer on the substrate is thicker than that on the top electrode. The spin-on dielectric layer is etched back until the top electrode is exposed. A patterned metal layer is formed on the spin-on dielectric layer and the top electrode with a bottom surface in directly contact with a top surface of the top electrode.

A method of fabricating an interconnect of a capacitor, comprising:
- providing a substrate having a capacitor that includes a metal bottom electrode plate electrically connected to the substrate, an inter-metal dielectric layer on the metal bottom electrode plate and a metal top electrode plate on the inter-metal dielectric layer;
- forming a spin-on dielectric layer on the substrate and the capacitor;
- etching back the spin-on dielectric layer until an entire top surface of the metal top electrode plate is exposed;
- and a
- forming a patterned metal layer in contact with the entire top surface of the metal top electrode plate.
A method of fabricating an interconnect of a capacitor and an inductor, comprising:
- providing a substrate having a capacitor and an inductor thereon, wherein the capacitor comprises a metal bottom electrode plate electrically connected to the substrate, an inter-metal dielectric layer on the metal bottom electrode plate and a metal top electrode plate on the inter-metal dielectric layer, and the inductor is electrically connected to the substrate;
- forming a spin-on dielectric layer covering the substrate, the inductor and the capacitor, wherein the spin-on dielectric layer covering the inductor and the capacitor is thinner than the spin-on dielectric layer covering the substrate;
- etching back the spin-on dielectric layer until top surface of the inductor and the capacitor are exposed;
- and
- forming a first patterned metal layer on the top surface of the capacitor and a second patterned metal layer on the entire top surface of the inductor, so that the first patterned metal layer is in direct contact with the top metal electrode plate of the capacitor and the second patterned metal layer is in direct contact with the inductor.
