Abstract

A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a plurality of first plugs contacted to a substrate by passing through a first inter-layer insulation layer; forming a second inter-layer insulation layer on the first plugs; forming a conductive pattern contacted to a group of the first plugs by etching selectively the second inter-layer insulation layer; and forming a contact hole exposing a surface of the first plug that is not contacted to the conductive pattern by etching selectively the second insulation layer with use of a dry-type and wet-type etch process, wherein an attack barrier layer is formed on between the first inter-layer insulation layer and the second inter-layer insulation layer to thereby prevent an incidence of attack to the first interlayer insulation layer contacted to the first plug during the wet-type etch process for forming the contact hole.
