Disclosed is a method of fabricating an integrated circuit comprising patterning a dielectric layer to form a hole having a sidewall and a bottom. The hole can expose an underlying material of an electrically conducting material. The method also includes exposing the sidewall and the exposed underlying material to a plasma etch, depositing a barrier layer on the bottom and the sidewall of the hole after the plasma etch clean, forming a counter-sunk cone in the underlying material by etching through the barrier layer at the bottom of the hole into the conducting metal underneath, flash depositing a thin layer of the barrier material into the hole, and finally depositing a metal seed layer in the hole covering the sidewalls and the bottom of the hole including the cone at the bottom. The hole is finally filled by depositing a metal layer in the hole.
