Abstract: A MEMS structure includes a substrate, an inter-dielectric layer on a front side of the substrate, a MEMS component on the inter-dielectric layer, and a chamber disposed within the inter-dielectric layer and through the substrate. The chamber has an opening at a backside of the substrate. An etch stop layer is disposed within the inter-dielectric layer. The chamber has a ceiling opposite to the opening and a sidewall joining the ceiling. The sidewall includes a portion of the etch stop layer.

Abstract: A method of forming a MEMS structure, in which an etch stop layer is formed to be buried within the inter-dielectric layer and, during an etch of the substrate and the inter-dielectric layer from backside to form a chamber, the etch stop layer protect the remaining inter-dielectric layer. The chamber thus formed has an opening at a backside of the substrate, a ceiling opposite to the opening, and a sidewall joining the ceiling. The sidewall may further include a portion of the etch stop layer.

Abstract: A method for fabricating an integrated device includes the following steps. First, a multi-layered structure is formed on a substrate, wherein the multi-layered structure is embedded in a lower isolation layer. Then, a bottom conductive pattern and a top conductive pattern are formed on a top surface of the lower isolation layer, wherein the top conductive pattern is on a top surface of the bottom conductive pattern. Afterwards, portions of the top conductive pattern are removed to expose portions of the bottom conductive pattern. Subsequently, an upper isolation layer is deposited on the lower isolation layer so that the upper isolation layer can be in direct contact with the portions of the bottom conductive pattern. Finally, portions of the lower isolation layer and the upper isolation layer are removed so as to expose portions of the substrate.

Abstract: A bond pad structure comprises an interconnection structure and an isolation layer. The dielectric layer has an opening and a metal pad. The isolation layer is disposed on the interconnection structure and extends into the opening until it is in contact with the metal pad, whereby the sidewalls of the opening is blanketed by the isolation layer, and a portion of the metal pad is exposed from the opening.
