Abstract

An interconnect structure includes a patterned and cured dielectric layer located directly on a surface of a patterned permanent antireflective coating. The patterned and cured dielectric layer and the permanent antireflective coating form shaped openings. The shaped openings include an inverse profile which narrows towards a top of the shaped openings. A conductive structure fills the shaped openings wherein the patterned and cured dielectric layer and the permanent antireflective coating each have a conductively filled region.
