Abstract:
An interconnection structure includes a first dielectric layer, a first conductor, an etch stop layer, and a second dielectric layer. The first conductor is partially in the first dielectric layer and having a portion protruding from the first dielectric layer. The etch stop layer is on the first dielectric layer and covering the protruding portion of the first conductor. The second dielectric layer is on the etch stop layer. A bottom surface of the second dielectric layer has a portion in a position lower than a top of the first conductor.

Claim (Index 8):
An interconnection structure, comprising:\n a first dielectric layer; a first conductor at least partially in the first dielectric layer; an etch stop layer on the first dielectric layer; a second dielectric layer on the etch stop layer, wherein an interface between the etch stop layer and the second dielectric layer has a first portion in a first position lower than a top of the first conductor and a second portion in a second position higher than the top of the first conductor; and a second conductor in the second dielectric layer and electrically connected to the first conductor.
