Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a patterned metal layer on a substrate, via conductors on the patterned metal layer, first inter-metal dielectric (IMD) patterns embedded in the patterned metal layer, and a second IMD pattern surrounding the patterned metal layer. Preferably, the first IMD patterns are between and without overlapping the via conductors in a top view.
