Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards a method for forming an integrated chip. The method includes forming a memory cell stack over a substrate. The memory cell stack includes a top electrode. A sidewall spacer structure is formed around the memory cell stack. The sidewall spacer structure includes a first sidewall spacer layer, a second sidewall spacer layer, and a protective sidewall spacer layer sandwiched between the first and second sidewall spacer layers. A dielectric structure is formed over the sidewall spacer structure. A first etch process is performed on the dielectric structure and the second sidewall spacer layer to define an opening above the top electrode. The second sidewall spacer layer and the dielectric structure are etched at a higher rate than the protective sidewall spacer layer during the first etch process. A top electrode via is formed within the opening.

Abstract: A method for forming a semiconductor structure includes following operations. A first substrate including a first side, a second side opposite to the first side, and a metallic pad disposed over the first side is received. A dielectric structure including a first trench directly above the metallic pad is formed. A second trench is formed in the dielectric structure and a portion of the first substrate. A sacrificial layer is formed to fill the first trench and the second trench. A third trench is formed directly above the metallic pad. A barrier ring and a bonding structure are formed in the third trench. A bonding layer is disposed to bond the first substrate to a second substrate. A portion of the second side of the first substrate is removed to expose the sacrificial layer. The sacrificial layer is removed by an etchant.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to a display device that includes a reflector electrode coupled to an interconnect structure. An isolation structure is disposed over the reflector electrode, and a transparent electrode is disposed over the isolation structure. Further, an optical emitter structure is disposed over the transparent electrode. A via structure extends from a top surface of the isolation structure to the reflector electrode and comprises an outer portion that directly overlies the top surface of the isolation structure. A hard mask layer is arranged directly between the top surface of the isolation structure and the outer portion of the via structure.

Abstract: The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to an integrated chip. The integrated chip includes an interconnect structure over a substrate. The interconnect structure includes a plurality of interconnects disposed within a dielectric structure. A bond pad structure is over the interconnect structure, a first masking layer is over the bond pad structure, and a second masking layer is over the first masking layer. The second masking layer contacts opposing outermost sidewalls of the bond pad structure and the first masking layer. A conductive bump vertically extends through the first masking layer and the second masking layer to contact the bond pad structure.
