METHOD OF DISTRIBUTING METAL LAYERS IN A POWER DEVICE

Abstract:

A metal distributing method of a FET (Field Effect Transistor) device, having: depositing a first dielectric layer on a planar silicon surface; etching a first level metal layer pattern in the first dielectric layer; filling in a first level metal layer in openings determined by the first level metal layer pattern; depositing a second dielectric layer on the first dielectric layer and the first level metal layer; etching a second level metal layer pattern in the second dielectric layer; and filling in a second level metal layer in openings determined by the second level metal layer pattern; the first level metal layer and the second level metal layer are contacted directly, with no via layer in between.
