A manufacturable method for forming a highly reliable electrical interconnection. An electrical interconnection pattern is first formed in a dielectric layer on a semiconductor substrate as recessed regions in the dielectric layer. A conductive layer primarily comprising copper is thereafter deposited over the surface and in the recessed regions of the dielectric layer. The conductive layer is then reflowed to fill the recessed regions of the dielectric layer with substantially no void formation. This reflow process may also be used to improve the step coverage of any such copper layer deposited over the surface of a substrate to be used in conjunction with alternate techniques for forming electrical interconnections including photoresist patterning and etch.
