A method of forming and structure for through wafer vias and signal transmission lines formed of through wafer vias. The method of forming through wafer vias includes forming an array of through wafer vias comprising at least one electrically conductive through wafer via and at least one electrically non-conductive through wafer via through a semiconductor substrate having a top surface and an opposite bottom surface, each through wafer via of the array of through wafer vias extending from the top surface of the substrate to the bottom surface of the substrate. |
