Abstract:
A multilayer interconnect structure is formed by, providing a substrate having thereon a first dielectric for supporting a multi-layer interconnection having lower conductor MN, upper conductor MN+1, dielectric interlayer (DIL) and interconnecting via conductor VN+1/N. The lower conductor MN has a first upper surface located in a recess below a second upper surface of the first dielectric. The DIL is formed above the first and second surfaces. A cavity is etched through the DIL from a desired location of the upper conductor MN+1, exposing the first surface. The cavity is filled with a further electrical conductor to form the upper conductor MN+1 and the connecting via conductor VN+1/N making electrical contact with the first upper surface. A critical dimension between others of lower conductors MN and the via conductor VN+1/N is lengthened. Leakage current and electro-migration there-between are reduced.
