Systems and methods for post-bonding wafer edge seal

Abstract

A method for fabricating a semiconductor device is disclosed. A first substrate is arranged over a second substrate. A wafer bonding process is performed on the semiconductor device. First regions of the device are enclosed by the bonding process. Second regions of the device remain exposed. One or more processes are performed on the exposed second regions, after performing the wafer bonding process. The one or more processes include a fill process that forms a fill material within the exposed second regions. An edge seal material is applied on the first and second substrates after performing the one or more processes.
