    Abstract: An integrated circuit device, comprising a substrate comprising a dielectric material and a conductor on or within the dielectric material of the substrate. The conductor comprises a first portion comprising a first sloped sidewall, wherein a first base width of the first portion is greater than a first top width of the first portion. The conductor also comprises a second portion over the first portion, the second portion comprising a second sloped sidewall, wherein a second base width of the upper portion is greater than both a second top width of the second portion and the first top width of the first portion.
