Abstract
A vertical inductor structure in a semiconductor device includes a plurality of vertically oriented spirals that produce magnetic field in a dielectric material above the surface of a semiconductor substrate thereby preventing any eddy currents from propagating in the substrate. An inductor shield structure is also provided. The inductor shield structure is formed over the substrate surface and between an inductor such as the vertical inductor structure or other inductor types and also prevents eddy currents from being induced in the substrate. The inductor shield may surround the inductor to various degrees.
