Abstract

A metal interconnect arrangement in an integrated circuit, includes a damascene trench which includes a dielectric base, with a trench made therein, one or more two dimensional diffusion barrier layers formed over the trench, a conductor layer formed atop the diffusion layer, wherein the one or more two-dimensional diffusion barrier layers substantially prevent diffusion of constituents of the conductor layer into the dielectric base.
