Abstract

A method of forming an interconnect structure for semiconductor or MEMS structures at a 10 nm Node (16 nm HPCD) down to 5 nm Node (7 nm HPCD), or lower, where the conductive contacts of the interconnect structure are fabricated using solely subtractive techniques applied to conformal layers of conductive materials.
