A method for fabricating an integrated circuit comprising an electromigration barrier in a line of the integrated circuit includes forming a spacer; forming a segmented line adjacent to opposing sides of the spacer, the segmented line formed from a first conductive material; removing the spacer to form an empty line break; and filling the empty line break with a second conductive material to form an electromigration barrier that isolates electromigration effects within individual segments of the segmented line. An integrated circuit comprising an electromigration barrier includes a line, the line comprising a first conductive material, the line further comprising a plurality of line segments separated by one or more electromigration barriers, wherein the one or more electromigration barriers comprise a second conductive material that isolates electromigration effects within individual segments of the line.
