Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a substrate. The semiconductor device further includes a conductive mesh on a first side of the substrate. The semiconductor device further includes an active region on a second side of the substrate, wherein the first side of the substrate is opposite to the second side of the substrate. The semiconductor device further includes a through via electrically connected to the conductive mesh, wherein the through via extends through the substrate. The semiconductor device further includes a contact structure on the second side of the substrate, wherein the contact structure is electrically connected to the active region, the contact structure is in direct contact with the through via, and the contact structure overlaps a top surface of the through via in a top view.
