Patent abstract
An air gap structure and formation method for substantially reducing capacitance in a dual damascene based interconnect structure is disclosed. The air gap extends above, and may also additionally extend below, the damascene interconnects desired to be isolated thus minimizing fringing fields between the lines. Multiple levels of the integrated air gap structure can be fabricated to accommodate multiple metal levels.
