  • Patent number: 8169084
    Abstract: It is described a bond pad structure and a method for producing the same, the bond pad structure (1), comprising: a substrate (3) having a surface (17) to be electrically contacted; a first isolator layer (5) contacting the surface (17) of the substrate in a first region (a); a first metal layer (9) contacting the surface (17) of the substrate (3) in a second region (b) adjacent the first region (a) and partly overlapping the first isolator layer (5); a second isolator layer (11) at least partly overlapping the first isolator layer (5) and the first metal layer (9); a second metal layer (13) at least partly overlapping the second isolator layer (11) in the second region (b); wherein a maximum thickness (U) of the second metal layer (13) perpendicular to the surface (17) of the substrate (3) is smaller than a maximum thickness (t0) of the first isolator layer (5) perpendicular to the surface (17) of the substrate (3).
