Zusammenfassung:In certain embodiments, a method includes forming a first etch stop layer on a first metallization layer of a semiconductor substrate. The method further includes forming, prior to forming a second metallization layer over the first metallization layer, an opening in the first etch stop layer according to a supervia mask. The method further includes forming the second metallization layer over the first metallization layer and forming a second etch stop layer on the second metallization layer. The method further includes forming, prior to forming a third metallization layer over the second metallization layer, an opening in the second etch stop layer according to the supervia mask. The method further includes forming the third metallization layer over the second metallization layer and etching a supervia opening from the third metallization layer to the first metallization layer according to the supervia mask.
