An interconnect system is provided. The interconnect system includes a silicon substrate and a first dielectric layer formed upon the silicon substrate. The interconnect system also includes a first level of at least two electrically conductive lines formed upon the first dielectric layer. The interconnect system further includes a region of low dielectric constant material formed between the at least two electrically conductive lines. The interconnect system also includes a first hard mask formed upon the polymer region.
