1. An interconnect structure, comprising:
a metal line embedded in a dielectric;
an interlayer dielectric (ILD) disposed over the metal line;
a first interconnect formed in the ILD on top of the metal line, wherein:
the first interconnect directly contacts the metal line;
the first interconnect comprises a plurality of vias; and
all sidewalls of the plurality of vias are parallel to one another;
a barrier layer separating the first interconnect from the ILD;
a selective capping layer disposed on the first interconnect;
a blanket capping layer disposed (i) on the selective capping layer and the ILD and (ii) over the first interconnect and a second interconnect, wherein:
the selective capping layer and the blanket capping layer are different materials; and
top surfaces of the selective capping layer and the ILD are coplanar; and
a second plurality of vias passing through the blanket capping layer and the selective capping layer, wherein the second plurality of vias directly contact the first interconnect.
