       FIGS.  1 - 22    illustrate a semiconductor arrangement  100  at various stages of fabrication, in accordance with some embodiments. 
     Referring to  FIG.  1   , an insulator layer  116  is formed, such as deposited, over an intermediate support medium  699 , according to some embodiments. In some embodiments, the intermediate support medium  699  comprises glass. In some embodiments, the intermediate support medium  699  is transparent to light. In some embodiments, the intermediate support medium  699  is transparent to light at ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths. In some embodiments, the intermediate support medium  699  functions as a foundation, base, or table to hold the semiconductor arrangement during fabrication stages. In some embodiments, the insulator layer  116  comprises a polymeric material, also referred to herein as a polymer. In some embodiments, the polymer comprises at least one of polybenzobisoxazole (PBO), a polyimide (PI), or other applicable materials. In some embodiments, the polymer is applied using spin coating. 
     In some embodiments, a thin layer  602  is disposed between the insulator layer  116  and the intermediate support medium  699 . In some embodiments, the thin layer  602  comprises a film, such as a light transfer heat conversion (LTHC) layer. 
     Referring to  FIG.  2   , one or more conductive elements  101 ,  103 , and  112  are formed in a portion of the insulator layer  116 , according to some embodiments. Some embodiments are implemented in which one or more openings are formed, such as etched, in the insulator layer  116 , and a seeding layer is formed, such as deposited, in the openings. In some embodiments, the seeding layer comprises a layer of conductive metals. Some embodiments are implemented in which the seeding layer comprises at least one of copper (Cu), titanium (Ti), or other applicable materials. Some embodiments are implemented in which a conductive metal is at least one of grown or deposited over the seeding layer to form the conductive elements  101 ,  103 , and  112 . Some embodiments are implemented in which the conductive metal is formed using electrochemical plating (ECP). Although not illustrated, in some embodiments, a topmost surface of one or more of the conductive elements  101 ,  103 , and  112  protrudes above a topmost surface of the insulator layer  116 . 
     Referring to  FIG.  3   , a photoresist  802  is formed over the insulator layer  116  and patterned to have openings  806 . In some embodiments, the photoresist  802  is formed by at least one of spinning, spray coating, or other applicable processes. The photoresist  802  comprises a light sensitive material, where properties, such as solubility, of the photoresist  802  are affected by light. The photoresist  802  is either a negative photoresist or a positive photoresist. With respect to a negative photoresist, regions of the negative photoresist become insoluble when illuminated by a light source, such that application of a solvent to the negative photoresist during a subsequent development stage removes non-illuminated regions of the negative photoresist. A pattern formed in the negative photoresist is thus a negative of a pattern defined by opaque regions of a template between the light source and the negative photoresist. In a positive photoresist, illuminated regions of the positive photoresist become soluble and are removed via application of a solvent during development. Thus, a pattern formed in the positive photoresist is a positive image of opaque regions of the template between the light source and the positive photoresist. 
     According to some embodiments, a first portion of the patterned photoresist  802  has a first dimension corresponding to a first distance  221 , a second portion has a dimension corresponding to a second distance  222 , a third portion has a dimension corresponding to a third distance  224 , and a fourth portion has a dimension corresponding to a fourth distance  226 . 
     A seeding layer  804  is formed, such as deposited, over the photoresist  802 , according to some embodiments. The seeding layer  804  comprises a layer of one or more conductive metals, such as copper or titanium. In some embodiments, the seeding layer  804  conforms to a contour of the photoresist  802 . 
     Referring to  FIG.  4   , a conductive material  902  is formed, such as deposited, over the seeding layer  804 , according to some embodiments. The conductive material  902  comprises a metal such as copper. Some embodiments are implemented in which the conductive material  902  is deposited using ECP. 
     Referring to  FIG.  5   , portions of the conductive material  902  and the seeding layer  804  overlying the photoresist  802  are removed, such as by chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP), in some embodiments. 
     Referring to  FIG.  6   , the photoresist  802  is removed, such as by stripping, according to some embodiments. After the photoresist  802  and the portions of the conductive material  902  and the seeding layer  804  overlying the photoresist  802  are removed, one or more vertical conductive structures  104 ,  105 ,  106 ,  107 ,  108 ,  109 , and  111  remain over the insulator layer  116 . In some embodiments, residual seeding layer  804  is on at least one of a sidewall or a bottom surface of at least one of the vertical conductive structures  104 ,  105 ,  106 ,  107 ,  108 ,  109 , or  111 . 
     According to some embodiments, respective heights of vertical conductive structures vary so that a height of one vertical conductive structure is different than a height of a different vertical conductive structure, where height is measured in a direction indicated by arrow  228 . According to some embodiments, respective heights of vertical conductive structures are varied by at least one of altering a height or uniformity of the photoresist  802  and thus a depth of at least one of the openings  806 , controlling an amount of the conductive material  902  filled into at least one of the openings  806 , or controlling an amount of the conductive material  902  removed from at least one of the openings  806 . According to some embodiments, respective thicknesses of vertical conductive structures vary so that a thickness of one vertical conductive structure is different than a thickness of a different vertical conductive structure, where thickness is measured in a direction indicated by one or more of the arrows indicating distances  221 ,  222 ,  224 ,  226 . According to some embodiments, respective thicknesses of vertical conductive structures are varied by at least one of altering a thickness or width of at least one of the openings  806 , controlling an amount of the conductive material  902  filled into at least one of the openings  806 , or controlling an amount of the conductive material  902  removed from at least one of the openings  806 . 
     Referring to  FIG.  7   , an active device  102  is formed over the insulator layer  116  between vertical conductive structures  105  and  106 .

The patterned photoresist  932  is then removed. In some embodiments, an etching process is used to remove the exposed portions of the molding compound  922  with the patterned photoresist  932 , while other portions of the molding compound  922  are protected from being removed during the etching process. The first opening  223  has a dimension corresponding to the first distance  221 , the second opening  225  has a dimension corresponding to the second distance  222 , the third opening  227  has a dimension corresponding to the third distance  224 , and the fourth opening  229  has a dimension corresponding to the fourth distance  226 .
