Abstract

Semiconductor devices and methods of making thereof are disclosed. The semiconductor device includes a substrate prepared with a first dielectric layer formed thereon. The dielectric layer includes at least first, second and third contact regions. A second dielectric layer is disposed over the first dielectric layer. The device also includes at least first, second and third via contacts disposed in the second dielectric layer. The via contacts are coupled to the respective underlying contact regions and the via contacts do not extend beyond the underlying contact regions.
