Abstract:
A method for forming a semiconductor device structure is provided. The method includes forming a first conductive line over a substrate. The method includes forming a first protection cap over a first portion of the first conductive line. The first protection cap and the first conductive line are made of different conductive materials. The method includes forming a first photosensitive dielectric layer over the substrate, the first conductive line, and the first protection cap. The method includes forming a first opening in the first photosensitive dielectric layer and over the first protection cap. The method includes forming a conductive via structure and a second conductive line over the first conductive line. The conductive via structure is in the first opening and over the first protection cap, and the second conductive line is over the conductive via structure and the first photosensitive dielectric layer.

Claim (Index 21):
A method for forming a semiconductor device structure, comprising:\n forming a first conductive line over a substrate, wherein the first conductive line has a first end portion and a main portion connected to the first end portion, and a first linewidth of the first end portion is greater than a second linewidth of the main portion; forming a protection cap over the first end portion, wherein the protection cap is made of a first conductive material having less reactivity with sulfur and oxygen than a second conductive material of the first conductive line; forming a first dielectric layer over the substrate, the first conductive line, and the protection cap, wherein the first dielectric layer has a first opening partially exposing the protection cap, and the first dielectric layer comprises sulfur; forming a magnetic core over the first dielectric layer, wherein the magnetic core extends across the first conductive line; forming a second dielectric layer over the first dielectric layer and the magnetic core, wherein the second dielectric layer has a second opening over and connected to the first opening; and forming a conductive via structure and a second conductive line over the first conductive line, wherein the conductive via structure is in the first opening and the second opening, and the second conductive line is over the conductive via structure, the second dielectric layer, and the magnetic core.
