  • Methods and apparatus for thermal isolation in vertically-integrated semiconductor devices
    Publication number: 20070205502
    Abstract: A semiconductor structure (100) includes a first substrate (110) having a first semiconductor device (112) formed therein, a second substrate (120) having a second device (122) formed therein and vertically-integrated above the first substrate (110), and a thermal isolation gap (130) disposed between the first device (112) and the second device (122). The thermal isolation gap (130) may be formed, for example, using an etched dielectric layer formed on first substrate (110), using an etched cavity in the second substrate (120), or by including a bonding layer (140) that has a gap or void incorporated therein.
