A capacitor structure includes a plurality of conductive line levels located over the substrate. Each of the conductive line levels includes a first conductive line and a second conductive line. The first conductive lines in the conductive line levels form a first conductive line co-plane and the second conductive lines in the conductive line levels form a second conductive line co-plane. A first conductive end is electrically connected to the first conductive lines on the conductive line levels. A second conductive end is electrically connected to the second conductive lines on the conductive line levels. A plurality of vias are located between the neighboring conductive line levels and placed on only one of the first and second conductive line co-planes on a same level.

Capacitor structure

A capacitor structure is provided. The capacitor structure comprises a plurality of parallel conductive line levels and a plurality of vias. Each conductive line level comprises first conductive lines parallel to each other and second conductive lines parallel to each other. Also, the first conductive lines on different conductive line levels are aligned to each other and the second conductive lines on different conductive line levels are aligned to each other so as to form first conductive line co-planes and second conductive line co-planes. The vias are located on the conductive line co-planes and between the conductive line levels for connecting the conductive lines on the neighboring conductive line levels. The vias, on a height level of each of the conductive line co-planes, are arranged only on one of the neighboring conductive line co-planes.
