Interconnect structure for high frequency signal transmissions
A higher aspect ratio for upper level metal interconnects is described for use in higher frequency circuits. Because the skin effect reduces the effective cross-sectional area of conductors at higher frequencies, various approaches are described to reduce the effective RC delay in interconnects.
