Abstract
Generally, the subject matter disclosed herein relates to conductive via elements, such as through-silicon vias (TSV's), and methods for forming the same. One illustrative method of forming a conductive via element disclosed herein includes forming a via opening in a substrate, the via opening extending through an interlayer dielectric layer formed above the substrate and a device layer formed below the interlayer dielectric layer, and extending into the substrate. The method also includes forming a first portion of the conductive via element comprising a first conductive contact material in a bottom portion of the via opening, and forming a second portion of the conductive via element comprising a second conductive contact material different from the first conductive contact material in an upper portion of the via opening and above the first portion.
