Semiconductor device and method

In an embodiment, a device includes: a semiconductor substrate; a first inter-layer dielectric (ILD) over the semiconductor substrate; a first conductive feature extending through the first ILD; a first etch stop layer over the first conductive feature and the first ILD, the first etch stop layer being a first dielectric material; a second ILD over the first etch stop layer; a contact having a first portion extending through the second ILD and a second portion extending through the first etch stop layer, the contact being physically and electrically coupled to the first conductive feature; and a first protective layer surrounding the second portion of the contact, the first portion of the contact being free from the first protective layer, the first protective layer being a second dielectric material, the second dielectric material being different from the first dielectric material.
