A structure includes a wafer having a top wafer surface. The wafer defines an opening. The top wafer surface defines a first reference direction perpendicular to the top wafer surface. The wafer has a thickness in the first reference direction. The structure also includes a through-wafer via formed in the opening. The through-wafer via has a shape, when viewed in a plane perpendicular to the first reference direction and parallel to the top wafer surface, of at least one of a spiral and a C-shape. The through-wafer via has a height in the first reference direction essentially equal to the thickness of the wafer in the first reference direction. Manufacturing techniques are also disclosed.
