Abstract
A microelectronic device includes a dual-damascene interconnect structure and a single-damascene line structure directly on the dual-damascene interconnect structure. The dual-damascene interconnect structure and the single-damascene line structure may each include multiple line segments that are arranged in a brick wall pattern. The brick wall pattern may also be used with two or more single-damascene line structures. Various microelectronic devices and related fabrication methods are described.
