The first surface A is provided with a first connection pad 110 and a second connection pad 120, and the second surface B is provided with a third connection pad 210, a fourth connection pad 220 and a fifth connection pad 230.

[0034] The first surface A and the second surface B can be the upper and lower surfaces of the semiconductor structure 1a for bonding with other semiconductor structures, or they can be independent upper and lower surfaces of the semiconductor structure 1a. The first connecting pad 110 and the second connecting pad 120 can have a portion extending below the first surface A and a surface portion exposed to the first surface A. The third connecting pad 210, the fourth connecting pad 220, and the fifth connecting pad 230 can have a portion extending below the second surface B and a surface portion exposed to the second surface B.

For example, the first connecting pad 110 is a copper-containing conductive pad, and the third connecting pad 210 is an aluminum-containing conductive pad.

[0036] In some embodiments, the first connecting pad 110, the second connecting pad 120, the third connecting pad 210, the fourth connecting pad 220, and the fifth connecting pad 230 are functional connecting pads, and the first surface A and the second surface B are also provided with non-functional connecting pads. The depth of the non-functional connecting pads extending below the first surface A and the second surface B is less than the extension depth of each functional connecting pad, such as... Figure 1 As shown. In some embodiments, non-functional connection pads may be disposed on only one surface of the semiconductor structure 1a, for example, only on the second surface B, while the connection pads disposed on the first surface A are all functional connection pads. In some embodiments, functional and non-functional connection pads are evenly distributed on each surface.

[0037] In some embodiments, taking a direction parallel to the first surface as a cross-section, the widths of the first connecting pad 110 and the second connecting pad 120 in this cross-section may be the same or substantially the same; in some embodiments, the widths of the first connecting pad 110 and the second connecting pad 120 in this cross-section may be different, for example, the width of the first connecting pad 110 may be greater than the width of the second connecting pad 120, and the width of the second connecting pad 120 may also be greater than the width of the first connecting pad 110. Similarly, the widths of the third connecting pad 210, the fourth connecting pad 220, and the fifth connecting pad 230 may also be the same or different from each other. In some embodiments, the maximum width of at least one of the first connecting pad 110 and the second connecting pad 120 is greater than the maximum width of at least one of the third connecting pad 210, the fourth connecting pad 220, and the fifth connecting pad 230.

[0039] In some embodiments, the minimum spacing between the first connecting pad 110 and the second connecting pad 120 includes the width of the first connecting pad 110 and the distance between the outer edges of the first connecting pad 110 and the second connecting pad 120. In other embodiments, the minimum spacing between the first connecting pad 110 and the second connecting pad 120 is the distance between the outer edges of the first connecting pad 110 and the second connecting pad 120.

[0040] The semiconductor structure 1a further includes a memory cell region 3, which is disposed between the first surface A and the second surface B. The memory cell region 3 includes a first semiconductor device 310 and a second semiconductor device 320, which are arranged along a first direction. The first direction can be parallel to the first surface A or perpendicular to the first surface A.

[0041] The storage cell region 3 also includes a first connection portion 30, which is used to connect at least one of the first semiconductor device 310 and the second semiconductor device 320. For example, in some embodiments, the first connection portion 30 connects both the first semiconductor device 310 and the second semiconductor device 320 simultaneously; that is, the first connection portion 30 can be a common connection portion between the first semiconductor device 310 and the second semiconductor device 320, such as... Figure 1 As shown. At this time, the first semiconductor device 310 and the second semiconductor device 320 are connected to the third connecting pad 210 via the first connecting portion 30. In some embodiments, the first direction is a direction perpendicular to the first connecting portion.

[0042] In some embodiments, the first connection portion 30 may also be connected separately to the first semiconductor device 310 or separately to the second semiconductor device 320, such as...

In the semiconductor structure 1a, the first semiconductor device 310 and the second semiconductor device 320 form connection channels through the connection pads disposed on the first surface A and the first surface B, respectively. The additional connection channels allow for more flexible layout and design of the first semiconductor device 310 and the second semiconductor device 320, thereby reducing the area of ​​the memory cell region and providing a more compact semiconductor structure.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first connection portion 30 is disposed relatively closer to the second surface B, see [reference] Figure 3 ,and Figure 1 and Figure 2 The difference is, Figure 3 In the semiconductor structure 1a shown, the first connection portion 30 is relative to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first connection portion 30 is disposed closer to the second surface B.

Similarly, the transistor in the second semiconductor device 320 includes a source 3202 and a drain 3201 arranged vertically, and a channel region located between the source 3202 and the drain 3201.

Wiring layer 2 may include two or more conductive wiring layers, such as four conductive wiring layers, interconnected by interlayer vias, and the third connecting pad 210, the fourth connecting pad 220, and the fifth connecting pad 230 are interconnected with the conductive wiring layers by interlayer vias. In some embodiments, the metal density in wiring layer 2 is greater than the metal density in interconnect layer 1. Metal density refers to the volume or mass percentage of a metal component within a specific volume; that is, the metal density of the interconnect layer refers to the volume or mass percentage of the metal interconnects in the interconnect layer, and the metal density of the wiring layer refers to the volume or mass percentage of the metal wiring in the wiring layer.
