    摘要: An integrated circuit chip comprising a guard ring formed on a semiconductor substrate that surrounds the active region of the integrated circuit chip and extends from the semiconductor substrate through one or more of a plurality of wiring levels. The guard ring comprises stacked metal lines with spaces breaking up each respective metal line. Each space may be formed such that it partially overlies the space in the metal line directly below but does not overlie any other space. Alternatively, each space may also be formed such that each space is at least completely overlying the space in the metal line below it.

    摘要: A method for forming a semiconductor wafer comprising of applying a first patterned resist to at least one first predetermined region of a wafer where said at least one first predetermined region of said wafer are protected by said first patterned resist and a first remaining portion of said wafer is not protected by said first patterned resist; etching said first remaining portion of said wafer not protected by said first pattern resist; stripping the first pattern resist from said wafer; applying a second patterned resist to at least one second pre-determined region of said wafer where said at least one second predetermined region of said wafer are protected by a second patterned resist and a second remaining portion is not protected by said second patterned resist; etching said second remaining portion not protected by said second patterned resist; and stripping said second patterned resist from said wafer.
