Abstract
A method of creating a unified chip involves performing front-end processing on a first wafer, the front end processing creating multiple devices on the wafer, performing back-end processing on a second wafer, the back end processing creating layers of interconnected metal traces arranged to interconnect at least some of the multiple devices to each other, and bonding the first wafer to the second wafer such that the multiple devices on the first wafer are interconnected to each other by the metal traces of the second wafer.
