Abstract: A method for forming semiconductor devices includes providing a substrate with a conductive pad formed thereon; forming a transparent structure over the substrate, wherein the transparent structure includes a plurality of collimating pillars adjacent to the conductive pad; forming a light-shielding structure over the plurality of collimating pillars and the conductive pad; performing a cutting process to remove one or more materials directly above the conductive pad, while leaving remaining material to cover the conductive pad, wherein the material includes a portion of the light-shielding structure; and performing an etching process to remove the remaining material to expose the conductive pad.

Abstract: The invention provides a material surface treatment equipment, which is applied to a material substrate. The material surface treatment equipment includes a surface treatment device and at least one waveguide device. The surface treatment device is used to carry the material substrate to perform a surface treatment process. Each waveguide device is used for introducing electromagnetic waves to the material substrate to assist in performing the surface treatment process. Through the introduction of electromagnetic waves, the surface treatment process of the material substrate is easy to perform and can achieve the strengthening effect.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates an integrated chip including a substrate. A conductive interconnect feature is arranged over the substrate. The conductive interconnect feature has a base feature portion with a base feature width and an upper feature portion with an upper feature width. The upper feature width is narrower than the base feature width such that the conductive interconnect feature has tapered outer feature sidewalls. An interconnect via is arranged over the conductive interconnect feature. The interconnect via has a base via portion with a base via width and an upper via portion with an upper via width. The upper via width is wider than the base via width such that the interconnect via has tapered outer via sidewalls.
