Abstract
A method for forming a semiconductor structure includes following operations. A first substrate including a first side, a second side opposite to the first side, and a metallic pad disposed over the first side is received. A dielectric structure including a first trench directly above the metallic pad is formed. A second trench is formed in the dielectric structure and a portion of the first substrate. A sacrificial layer is formed to fill the first trench and the second trench. A third trench is formed directly above the metallic pad. A barrier ring and a bonding structure are formed in the third trench. A bonding layer is disposed to bond the first substrate to a second substrate. A portion of the second side of the first substrate is removed to expose the sacrificial layer. The sacrificial layer is removed by an etchant.
