Abstract
A crack stopping structure is disclosed. The crack stopping structure includes a semiconductor substrate having a die region, a die seal ring region, and a scribe line region; a metal interconnect structure disposed on the semiconductor substrate of the scribe line region; and a plurality of dielectric layers disposed on the semiconductor substrate of the die region, the die seal ring region, and the scribe line region. The dielectric layers include a first opening exposing the surface of the metal interconnect structure of the scribe line region and a second opening exposing the dielectric layer adjacent to the metal interconnect structure such that the metal interconnect structure and the exposed portion of the dielectric layer form a step.
