Abstract

The invention provides a metal interconnection structure and a manufacturing method thereof. The manufacturing method comprises the following steps of: manufacturing a metal interconnection structure on a substrate, wherein the metal interconnection structure comprises a metal wire pattern, a conductive plug and a medium layer which is filled between the metal wire pattern and the conductive plug; performing photoetching, and etching the metal interconnection structure by adopting an anisotropic dry etching method from top to bottom, and at least forming a through hole or a groove on an area which is a medium layer from top to bottom; and removing the medium layer below the metal wire pattern by adopting an isotropic removing method to form a novel metal interconnection structure, wherein the two ends of the novel metal interconnection structure are embedded into the medium layer, and other parts of the novel metal interconnection structure float in the groove or the hole. Due to the adoption of the technical scheme of the invention, certain requirements on a suspended metal interconnection structure can be met, e.g., non-matching conditions with a lens can be reduced, the light crosstalk phenomenon is reduced, and needed materials can be filled into a suspended structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a metal interconnection structure and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Currently, image sensors entering the market are classified into complementary metal oxide semiconductor (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor, CMOS) sensors and charge-coupled device (Charge-coupled Device, CCD) sensors. CMOS or CCD sensors usually have hundreds of thousands or even millions of pixels to convert light signals into electrical signals, so that the original images of people or objects are converted into electrical signals in the image sensor. CMOS or CCD image sensors have been widely used in various digital image devices, such as digital cameras, digital video cameras and other electronic devices, due to their advantages of small size, low power consumption, and low cost. [0003] Regarding the structure of the CMOS image sensor in the prior art, such ...
