[0002] In current semiconductor structures, a high-resistivity (HIR) layer is usually used to form a resistor structure. Taking the high-K Metal Gate (HKMG) device as an example, the HIR resistor structure is usually composed of two film layers (such as TiN and SiN) and is connected to them through an embolization structure to achieve the functions of voltage division, current limiting and leakage prevention.
[0003] However, in the process of forming the HIR resistor structure in the related art, since an additional dielectric layer needs to be added to form the HIR resistor structure and the embolization structure separately, the thickness of the dielectric layer is increased, which easily causes the contact hole in the semiconductor structure to be too long, resulting in a decrease in the contact hole filling ability and a contact hole (contact open) defect, which in turn has an adverse effect on the performance of the semiconductor structure.
