In electropolishing a metal layer on a semiconductor wafer, a dielectric layer is formed on the semiconductor wafer. The dielectric layer is formed with a recessed area and a non-recessed area. A plurality of dummy structures are formed within the recessed areas where the dummy structures are inactive areas configured to increase the planarity of a metal layer subsequently formed on the dielectric layer. A metal layer is then formed to fill the recessed area and cover the non-recessed area and the plurality of dummy structures. The metal layer is then electropolished to expose the non-recessed area. |
