The primary objective is to yield an ultra-clean metallic surface and a defect-free inter-line space, thereby preventing leakage currents and preparing the topography for the subsequent Pre-Metal Dielectric 4 (PMD4) deposition [A2].
In the 40nm BSI CMOS Image Sensor flow, the Ashing & Strip/Clean s…
