Abstract

A method of forming a semiconductor device includes depositing a light reflecting layer over a substrate. The method also includes forming a protection layer over the light reflecting layer. The method further includes forming an anti-reflective coating (ARC) layer over the protection layer. The method additionally includes forming an opening in the ARC layer, the protection layer and the light reflecting layer exposing the substrate. The method also includes removing the ARC layer in a wet solution comprising H2O2, the ARC layer being exposed to the H2O2 at a flow rate greater than about 10 standard cubic centimeters per minute (sccm).
