A BEOL manufacturing process for forming a via process between two metal lines on a semiconductor wafer comprises depositing a portion of a first metal adhesion layer within a patterned via hole, followed by a cooling step. The cooling step is then followed by formation of the remainder of the first metal adhesion layer and formation of a second metal adhesion layer within the patterned via hole. This process of forming the remaining portion of the first metal adhesion layer can be referred to as a wafer load, unload, load (LUL) process. By using a LUL process, thermal history is minimized, which reduces Al extrusion at the via interfaces.
