Abstract
A method for contacting an electrically conductive electrode overlying a first dielectric material of a structure is provided. The method includes forming a mask layer overlying the electrically conductive electrode and patterning the mask layer to form an exposed electrically conductive electrode material. At least a portion of the exposed electrically conductive electrode material is removed while an electrically conductive veil is formed adjacent the mask layer. A metal contact layer is formed such that said metal contact layer contacts the electrically conductive veil.
