    Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes the following steps. A dielectric layer is formed over a conductive line. A photoresist layer is formed over the dielectric layer. The photoresist layer is patterned to form a mask feature and an opening is defined by the mask feature. The opening has a bottom portion and a top portion communicated to the bottom portion, and the top portion is wider than the bottom portion. The dielectric layer is etched to form a via hole in the dielectric layer using the mask feature as an etch mask, such that the via hole has a bottom portion and a tapered portion over the bottom portion. The conductive material is filled in the via hole to form a conductive via.

    Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a semiconductor device, a conductive line, a dielectric layer and a redistribution layer (RDL). The conductive line is present over the semiconductor device. The dielectric layer is present over the conductive line. The RDL includes a conductive structure over the dielectric layer and a conductive via extending downwards from the conductive structure and through the dielectric layer. The conductive via comprises a bottom portion, a top portion, and a tapered portion between the bottom and top portions, wherein the tapered portion has a width variation greater than that of the bottom and top portions.
