An open through-substrate via, TSV, comprises an insulation layer disposed adjacent to at least a portion of side walls of a trench and to a surface of a substrate body. The TSV further comprises a metallization layer disposed adjacent to at least a portion of the insulation layer and to at least a portion of a bottom wall of said trench, a redistribution layer disposed adjacent to at least a portion of the metallization layer and a portion of the insulation layer disposed adjacent to the surface, and a capping layer disposed adjacent to at least a portion of the metallization layer and to at least a portion of the redistribution layer. The insulation layer and/or the capping layer comprise sublayers that are distinct from each other in terms of material properties. A first of the sublayers is disposed adjacent to at least a portion of the side walls and to at least a portion of the surface and a second of the sublayers is disposed adjacent to at least a portion of the surface.
