INDUCTOR MODULE AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE SAME

Abstract:

An inductor module and a method for fabricating the same are disclosed. The inductor module includes a substrate, a first inter-level dielectric layer, a plurality of second inter-level dielectric layers, a trench, and a first metal layer. The first inter-level dielectric layer is disposed on the substrate. The second inter-level dielectric layers are sequentially stacked on the first inter-level dielectric layer. The trench is disposed to penetrate at least two of the second inter-level dielectric layers. The first metal layer is disposed in the trench. The first metal layer has a top side surface and a bottom side surface opposite to each other. The top side surface is coplanar with an upper surface of the trench in the second inter-level dielectric layers. The bottom side surface is coplanar with a bottom surface of the trench in the second inter-level dielectric layers.
