Abstract
A semiconductor device comprises a first doped semiconductor layer, a second doped semiconductor layer, an oxide layer covering the first doped semiconductor layer and the second doped semiconductor layer, and an interconnect. The first doped semiconductor layer is electrically connected with the second doped semiconductor layer by means of the interconnect which crosses over a sidewall of the second doped semiconductor layer. The interconnect comprises a metal filled slit in the oxide layer. At least one electronic component is formed in the first and/or second semiconductor layer. The semiconductor device moreover comprises a passivation layer which covers the first and second doped semiconductor layers and the oxide layer.
