Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a backside power rail, a backside ground rail, and a backside isolation rail between the backside power rail and the backside ground rail. The backside isolation rail may provide adequate electrical isolation between the backside power rail and the backside ground rail, thereby enabling the backside power rail and the backside ground rail to be located relatively near to one another. The backside isolation rail may also cure actual electrical shorts between the backside power rail and the backside ground rail.
