1. A method of fabricating a semiconductive device, comprising:
depositing a hydrocarbon layer over a semiconductive substrate;
patterning the hydrocarbon layer to define an interconnect structure;
etching the patterned hydrocarbon layer to form openings in the hydrocarbon layer;
depositing an interconnect structure within the openings of the hydrocarbon layer; and
completely removing a remaining hydrocarbon layer by sublimation at about room temperature.
