Abstract: In one example, a semiconductor device can comprise a substrate, a device stack, first and second internal interconnects, and an encapsulant. The substrate can comprise a first and second substrate sides opposite each other, a substrate outer sidewall between the first substrate side and the second substrate side, and a substrate inner sidewall defining a cavity between the first substrate side and the second substrate side. The device stack can be in the cavity and can comprise a first electronic device, and a second electronic device stacked on the first electronic device. The first internal interconnect can be coupled to the substrate and the device stack. The encapsulant can cover the substrate inner sidewall and the device stack and can fill the cavity. Other examples and related methods are disclosed herein.

Abstract: A semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device are provided in which a lower plug electrically connected with an active region of a wafer has a recession, and a conductive layer has a projection fitted into the recession of the lower plug, so that a contact area between the lower plug and the conductive layer increases without increasing a contact resistance therebetween. Thus, the conductive layer can endure physical impacts applied in the formation of the conductive layer itself and in subsequent integration processes, without detaching from the lower plug or the wafer.
