Device comprising an ohmic via contact, and method of fabricating thereof. A preferred embodiment comprises forming a metal layer over a substrate, forming a conductive barrier layer over the metal layer, depositing an insulating layer over the conductive barrier layer, creating an opening in the insulating layer to expose the conductive barrier layer, and forming a via contact in the opening. The conductive barrier layer protects the metal layer by preventing the formation of an oxide layer, which could reduce conductivity.
