Abstract

See full text

A semiconductor circuit apparatus including several semiconductor substrates interconnected by having elevated portions of one substrate contacting the surface of the second substrate where both substrates include at least one electrical circuit. Also included is a method for forming this three dimensional integrated circuit structure by forming the elevated portions of the semiconductor substrate by applying an orientation-dependent etch and then applying an electrically conductive coating to this elevated portion. Electrically conductive bonding pads are formed on the second semiconductor substrate. These pads are selectively positioned relative to the elevated portions formed on the first semiconductor substrate. Contacts between the first and second substrate are formed by forming bonds between the elevated portions on the one substrate and the electrically conductive pads on the second substrate.
