Abstract: Dual-depth through-wafer-via semiconductor devices and methods for fabricating dual-depth through-wafer-via semiconductor devices are disclosed. In particular, back-contact-only multijunction photovoltaic cells and the process flows for making such cells are disclosed. The dual-depth through-wafer-via multijunction photovoltaic cells include through-wafer-vias for interconnecting the front surface epitaxial layer to a contact pad on the back surface. Before etching the through-wafer-vias the substrate is thinned to less than 150 pm. The dual-depth through-wafer-vias are formed using a two-step wet etch process that removes semiconductor materials non-selectively without major differences in etch rates between heteroepitaxial III-V semiconductor layers. Low-stress passivation layers are used to reduce the thermo-mechanical stress of the semiconductor devices. A bypass diode is integrated in the recess on the backside formed by the dual-depth through-wafer structure.
