Abstract
An integrated circuit structure includes a first conductive layer, a first plug, an insulating layer, a second plug, and a second conductive layer. The first conductive layer is on a substrate wherein the first conductive layer has a recess in a surface thereof opposite the substrate, and the first plug is in the recess. The insulating layer is on the first conductive layer and on the first plug wherein the first insulating layer has a hole therein that exposes a portion of the first plug, and the second plug is in the hole. The second conductive layer is on the insulating layer and on the second plug in the hole opposite the substrate. In particular, a size of the recess can be greater than a size of the hole. An electrical resistance between the first and second conductive layers can thus be reduced. Related methods are also discussed.
