Some embodiments relate to a method. In this method, a semiconductor wafer having a frontside and a backside is received. A frontside structure is formed on the frontside of the semiconductor wafer. The frontside structure exerts a first wafer-bowing stress that bows the semiconductor wafer by a first bow amount. A characteristic is determined for one or more stress-inducing films to be formed based on the first bow amount. The one or more stress-inducing films are formed with the determined characteristic on the backside of the semiconductor wafer and/or on the frontside of the semiconductor wafer to reduce the first bow amount in the semiconductor wafer.
