Abstract
The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to an interconnect structure. The interconnect structure has a metal body disposed over a substrate, and a metal projection protruding outward from an upper surface of the metal body. A dielectric layer is disposed over the substrate and surrounds the metal body and the metal projection. A barrier layer separates the metal body and the metal projection from the dielectric layer.
