A method of forming thin film metal interconnects employed in integrated circuit structures comprising the step of laying out the interconnects so that the patterned interconnects have a relationship of interconnect width, L, and interconnect spatial separation, S, so that S>1 mu m>L. In particular, line width, L, is equal to or less than 0.8 mu m, spatial separation, S, is in the range of 1.0 mu m to 1.2 mu m and interconnect thickness, TA1, is about 0.5 mu m thereby providing effective optimization in the amount of reduction in interconnect spatial capacitance resulting in increased operation speed of the integrated circuit structure.
