    摘要: An integrated circuit structure includes a lower dielectric layer; an upper dielectric layer over the lower dielectric layer; and a seal ring. The seal ring includes an upper metal line in the upper dielectric layer; a continuous via bar underlying and abutting the upper metal line, wherein the continuous via bar has a width greater than about 70 percent of a width of the upper metal line; a lower metal line in the lower dielectric layer; and a via bar underlying and abutting the lower metal line. The via bar has a width substantially less than a half of a width of the lower metal line.
