    Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a first conductive line and a second conductive line in a first dielectric layer, and a third conductive line in a second dielectric layer overlying the first dielectric layer. The first conductive line and the second conductive line each extend along a first direction. The third conductive line extends along a second direction different from the first direction and above at least the second conductive line. The semiconductor structure further includes a via in the second dielectric layer and electrically connecting the second conductive line and the third conductive line. The via lands on a portion of the second conductive line. The semiconductor structure further includes a dielectric cap over the first conductive line. A bottom surface of the dielectric cap is below a top surface of the first dielectric layer.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device including a light sensing region disposed on a substrate is provided that includes a bond structure having one or more patterned layers underlying the pad element. The pad element may be coupled to the light sensing region and may be formed in a first metal layer disposed on the substrate. A second metal layer of the device has a first bond region, a region of the second metal layer that underlies the pad element. This first bond region of the second metal layer includes a pattern of a plurality of conductive lines interposed by dielectric. A via connects the pad element and the second metal layer.

    Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes forming a plurality of lower level conductive lines in a first dielectric layer. The plurality of lower level conductive lines includes a first lower level conductive line. The method further includes recessing portions of the first lower level conductive line below a top surface of the first dielectric layer to form a recess, forming a dielectric cap in the recess, depositing a second dielectric layer over the first dielectric layer. Forming a via opening exposes a portion of the second lower level conductive line. The method further includes forming an upper level conductive line and a via in the trench and in the via opening, respectively. The via couples the upper level conductive line to the second lower level conductive line, and the upper level conductive line overlaps with the dielectric cap.
