The present invention is a method of fabricating interconnects. A semiconductor substrate having a dielectric layer is provided. The dielectric layer has a via opening therein, which exposes the semiconductor substrate. Next, the surfaces of the via opening is covered with a conformal titanium layer formed by a sputtering process. The surface of the conformal titanium layer is covered with an Al—Si—Cu alloy layer formed by a sputtering process at a temperature of about 0° C. to 200° C. Then, the surface of the Al—Si—Cu alloy layer is covered with an Al—Cu alloy layer formed by a sputtering process at a temperature of about 380° C. to 450° C., which Al—Cu alloy layer fills the via opening. The Al—Cu alloy layer, the Al—Si—Cu alloy layer and the wetting layer on the dielectric layer are patterned by photolithography and etching process.
