    Abstract: A semiconductor die includes semiconductor devices located over a substrate, at least one dielectric material portion that laterally surrounds the semiconductor devices, and interconnect-level dielectric material layers. At least one edge seal ring structure can be provided, each including a composite edge seal via structure and a set of metal barrier structures. The composite edge seal via structure includes a metallic material layer and a dielectric fill material portion. Alternatively or additionally, at least one slit ring structure can laterally surround the semiconductor devices and the metal interconnect structures. Each slit ring structure continuously extends through each of the interconnect-level dielectric material layers and into the at least one dielectric material portion, and includes at least one dielectric material.
