Abstract

Integrated circuit cell architectures including both front-side and back-side structures. One or more of back-side implant, semiconductor deposition, dielectric deposition, metallization, film patterning, and wafer-level layer transfer is integrated with front-side processing. Such double-side processing may entail revealing a back side of structures fabricated from the front-side of a substrate. Host-donor substrate assemblies may be built-up to support and protect front-side structures during back-side processing. Front-side devices, such as FETs, may be modified and/or interconnected during back-side processing. Electrical test may be performed from front and back sides of a workpiece. Back-side devices, such as FETs, may be integrated with front-side devices to expand device functionality, improve performance, or increase device density.
