Through-silicon via for high-speed interconnects

A device includes a semiconductor substrate having first and second surfaces facing one another, and multiple through-silicon vias (TSVs). The TSVs are formed through the substrate between the first and second surfaces, at least a first TSV of the TSVs includes: (i) an electrically conductive interconnect, which is formed within the first TSV and is configured to conduct an electrical signal between the first and second surfaces, and (ii) an attenuation layer, which is formed within the first TSV, between the substrate and the electrically conductive interconnect, the attenuation layer configured to attenuate interference between electrical signals carried by two or more of the TSVs.
