Abstract
A semiconductor die includes at least one first semiconductor device located on a first substrate, a first pad-level dielectric layer which is a diffusion barrier overlying the at least one first semiconductor device, and first bonding structures including a respective first metallic bonding pad embedded in the first pad-level dielectric layer. Each of the first bonding structures includes a metallic fill material portion having a horizontal distal surface that is located within a horizontal plane including a horizontal distal surface of the first pad-level dielectric layer, and a metallic liner laterally surrounding the metallic fill material portion and vertically spaced from the horizontal plane by a vertical recess distance.
