Abstract
Embodiments of semiconductor devices and fabrication methods thereof are disclosed. In an example, a semiconductor device includes a first semiconductor structure and a second semiconductor structure. The first semiconductor structure includes a first bonding layer having a plurality of first bonding contacts, and a first via structure extending vertically through the first bonding layer and into the first semiconductor structure. The second semiconductor structure includes a second bonding layer having a plurality of second bonding contacts, and a second via structure extending vertically through the second bonding layer and into the second semiconductor structure. The first bonding contacts are in contact with the second bonding contacts at the bonding interface, the first via structure is in contact with the second via structure, and sidewalls of the first via structure and the second via structures have a staggered profile at the bonding interface.
