    Abstract: A bonded structure is disclosed. The bonded structure can include a first element that has a first plurality of contact pads. The first plurality of contact pads includes a first contact pad and a second redundant contact pad. The bonded structure can also include a second element directly bonded to the first element without an intervening adhesive. The second element has a second plurality of contact pads. The second plurality of contact pads includes a third contact pad and a fourth redundant contact pad. The first contact pad is configured to connect to the third contact pad. The second contact pad is configured to connect to the fourth contact pad. The bonded structure can include circuitry that has a first state in which an electrical signal is transferred to the first contact pad and a second state in which the electrical signal is transferred to the second contact pad.

    Abstract: A bonded structure is disclosed. The bonded structure can include a first semiconductor element having a first front side and a first back side opposite the first front side. The bonded structure can include a second semiconductor element having a second front side and a second back side opposite the second front side, the first front side of the first semiconductor element directly bonded to the second front side of the second semiconductor element along a bond interface without an adhesive. The bonded structure can include security circuitry extending across the bond interface, the security circuitry electrically connected to the first and second semiconductor elements.

    Abstract: A bonded structure is disclosed. The bonded structure can include a semiconductor element comprising active circuitry. The bonded structure can include an obstructive element bonded to the semiconductor element along a bond interface, the obstructive element including an obstructive material disposed over the active circuitry, the obstructive material configured to obstruct external access to the active circuitry. The bonded element can include an artifact structure indicative of a wafer-level bond in which the semiconductor element and the obstructive element formed part of respective wafers directly bonded prior to singulation.
