Abstract
A method for forming a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) device structure is provided. The method includes forming a substrate over a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) substrate. The substrate includes a semiconductor via. The method also includes forming a dielectric layer over a top surface of the substrate, and forming a polymer layer over the dielectric layer. The method further includes patterning the polymer layer to form an opening, and the semiconductor via is exposed by the opening. The method includes forming a conductive layer in the opening and over the polymer layer, and forming an under bump metallization (UBM) layer on the conductive layer. The method further includes forming an electrical connector over the UBM layer, wherein the electrical connector is electrically connected to the semiconductor via through the UBM layer.
