Semiconductor device with integrated decoupling and alignment features

Abstract

The present application discloses a semiconductor device with integrated decoupling alignment features. The semiconductor device includes a first wafer comprising a first substrate having a dielectric stack, a decoupling feature positioned in the dielectric stack under one of the plurality of first alignment marks, a plurality of first alignment marks positioned on the first substrate and parallel to each other; and a second wafer positioned on the first wafer and comprising a plurality of second alignment marks positioned above the plurality of first alignment marks. The plurality of second alignment marks are arranged parallel to the plurality of first alignment marks and adjacent to the plurality of first alignment marks in a top-view perspective. The plurality of first alignment marks and the plurality of second alignment marks comprise a fluorescence material. The decoupling feature has a bottle-shaped cross-sectional profile, and the decoupling feature comprises a porous low-k material.
