Abstract:
A three-dimensional integrated structure is fabricated by assembling at least two parts together, wherein each part contains at least one metallic line covered with a covering region and having a free side. A cavity is formed in the covering region of each part, that cavity opening onto the metallic line. The two parts are joined together with the free sides facing each other and the cavities in each covering region aligned with each other. The metallic lines are then electrically joined to each other through an electromigration of the metal within at least one of the metallic lines, the electromigrated material filling the aligned cavities.

Abstract:
A method for forming a level of a tridimensional structure on a first support in which components are formed, including the steps of forming, on a second semiconductor support, a single-crystal semiconductor substrate with an interposed thermal oxide layer; placing the free surface of the single-crystal semiconductor substrate on the upper surface of the first support; eliminating the second semiconductor support; and thinning down the thermal oxide layer down to a thickness capable of forming a gate insulator.
Abstract:
A resonant device including a stack of a first metal layer, a piezoelectric material layer, and a second metal layer formed on a silicon substrate, a cavity being formed in depth in the substrate, the thickness of the silicon above the cavity having at least a first value in a first region located opposite to the center of the stack, having a second value in a second region located under the periphery of the stack and having at least a third value in a third region surrounding the second region, the second value being greater than the first and the third values.
Abstract:
A process for assembling two parts of an integrated electronic circuit has two successive steps. During a first step, the two circuit parts are made into a single unit by molecular bonding, realized on respective application surfaces of the two parts. During a second step, electrical connections are formed from connection portions already present in the application surfaces of the two circuit parts. The connections formed extend across the bonding interface, and are compatible with a high reliability and a high level of integration of the circuit.
