Abstract

A method of forming through-holes in a multi-level interconnect system in which a layer of photo-resist is spun over a masking layer prior to mask-etching so that when the photo-resist is exposed and developed some remains in the bottom of through holes formed in the surface layer so as to protect the base layer from the mask-etching agent.
