Abstract
Methods for making a semiconductor structure are discussed. The methods include forming openings in a high-density area and a high-speed area, and forming a metallization layer simultaneously into the high-density area and the high-speed area. The metallization layer includes a combination of substances and compounds that reduce vertical resistance, reduce horizontal resistance, and inhibit cross-diffusion.
