Abstract
Metal structures that can be produced by a damascene process are disposed in a first insulating layer and a second insulating layer is disposed above the latter. There is in each case at least one cavity which is disposed between the metal structures, is disposed in the first insulating layer and is covered by the second insulating layer. The cavities and the metal structures are produced next to one another by self-aligned process steps.
