Disclosed are complementary field effect transistor (CFET) circuits with vertical routing structures and methods for making the same. In an aspect, a semiconductor structure comprises a first field effect transistor (FET) of a first charge carrier type, comprising a first source/drain (S/D) region, a second S/D region, and a first gate; a second FET of a second charge carrier type, disposed above the first FET and comprising a third S/D region, a fourth S/D region, and a second gate; a frontside metal (FM) layer disposed above the second FET and comprising an FM conductor extending in an X direction; a backside metal (BM) layer disposed below the first FET and comprising a BM conductor extending in the X direction; and a vertical connector extending in the Z direction, that electrically couples the BM conductor to the FM conductor.
