A method of fabricating a stacked dielectric layer for suppressing
electrostatic charge buildup. First, a substrate having metal layers
thereon is provided, with a plurality of gaps formed therebetween. Next,
a dielectric layer is formed by simultaneous deposition and
ion-bombardment, such that the dielectric layer covers the bottom
dielectric liner and fills the gaps. Finally, a top dielectric liner is
formed on the dielectric layer by deposition without ion-bombardment.
Furthermore, the present invention provides another method to fabricate a
stacked dielectric layer by performing a plasma treatment on the
dielectric layer to suppress electrostatic charge buildup. As a result,
the above-mentioned methods can efficiently avoid metal extrusion issues.
