Abstract

A semiconductor structure includes a substrate, a plurality of conductive features disposed over the substrate, and an isolation structure between conductive features and separating the conductive features from each other. Each of the conductive features includes a first metal layer and a 2D material layer. Another semiconductor structure includes a first conductive feature, a dielectric structure over the first conductive feature, a second conductive feature in the dielectric structure and coupled to the first conductive feature, and a conductive line over and coupled to the second conductive feature. In some embodiments, the conductive line includes a first 3D material layer, a first 2D material layer, and a second 3D material layer. The first 2D material layer is disposed between the first 3D material layer and the second 3D material layer.
