Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a lower device and an upper device disposed on the lower device. The lower device includes a lower substrate, a lower plug pad disposed on the lower substrate, and a lower interlayer dielectric layer on the lower plug pad. The upper device includes an upper substrate, an etch-delay structure in a lower portion of the upper substrate, an upper plug pad disposed on a bottom surface of the upper substrate, an upper interlayer dielectric layer on the upper plug pad, and a via plug configured to penetrate the upper substrate and contact the upper plug pad and the lower plug pad. The via plug includes a first portion in contact with the upper plug pad and the first etch-delay structure, and a second portion in contact with the lower plug pad.
