Formation of TSV backside interconnects by modifying carrier wafers

摘要

An integrated circuit structure includes a semiconductor wafer, which includes a first notch extending from an edge of the semiconductor wafer into the semiconductor wafer. A carrier wafer is mounted onto the semiconductor wafer. The carrier wafer has a second notch overlapping at least a portion of the first notch. A side of the carrier wafer facing the semiconductor wafer forms a sharp angle with an edge of the carrier wafer. The carrier wafer has a resistivity lower than about 1×108 Ohm-cm.
