Test structures for dielectric reliability evaluations

Methods and test structures for testing the reliability of a dielectric material. The test structure may include a first row of contacts and a line comprised of a conductor. The line is laterally spaced in a direction at a minimum distance from the first row of contacts. The test structure further i...

Zusammenfassung:Methods and test structures for testing the reliability of a dielectric material. The test structure may include a first row of contacts and a line comprised of a conductor. The line is laterally spaced in a direction at a minimum distance from the first row of contacts. The test structure further includes a second row of contacts laterally spaced in the direction from the first row of contacts by a distance equal to two times a minimum pitch. The line is laterally positioned between the first row of contacts and the second row of contacts.
