The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to semiconductor devices with a shared common backside well and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: adjacent gate structures over a semiconductor substrate; a common well in the semiconductor substrate under the adjacent gate structures; a deep trench isolation structure extending through the common well between the adjacent gate structures; and a shared diffusion region between the adjacent gate structures.

Semiconductor structure with shared well

The disclosure provides integrated circuit (IC) structures and methods to form the same. Methods according to the disclosure may be performed on a substrate having a first doping type, the substrate extending between a first end and a second end. A deep well is formed within the substrate, the deep well including a well boundary defined between the deep well and a remainder of the substrate. The well boundary is horizontally distal to a midpoint between the first end and the second end of the substrate. A first active semiconductor region is formed at least partially over the substrate, and an oppositely-doped second active semiconductor region is formed at least partially over the deep well.

Integrated circuit structures with well boundary distal to substrate midpoint and methods to form the same

Structures including stacked field-effect transistors and methods of forming a structure including stacked field-effect transistors. The structure includes a field-effect transistor having a first active gate, a second active gate, and a drain region that is positioned in a horizontal direction between the first and second active gates. The structure further includes a back-end-of-line stack having a first metal level and a second metal level over the field-effect transistor. The first metal level includes a first interconnect, a second interconnect, and a third interconnect, and the second metal level includes a fourth interconnect. The third interconnect is connected to the drain region. The third interconnect is positioned in a vertical direction between the fourth interconnect and the drain region, and the third interconnect is positioned in the horizontal direction between the first and second interconnects.
