Abstract The specification describes a multilevel metal CMOS integrated circuit wherein a first or lower level of metallization comprises strips of tungsten over aluminum. These strips are connected through vias in an inter-metal dielectric layer to an upper or second level of metallization which is photodefined in a desired pattern. The tungsten suppresses hillocks in the underlying aluminum during high temperature processing and also advantageously serves as an etch stop material during integrated circuit fabrication.
