US Patent 11804473 Hybrid bond pad structure

In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to an integrated chip structure. The integrated chip structure includes a first plurality of interconnects arranged within a first inter-level dielectric (ILD) structure on a first substrate, and a second plurality of interconnects arranged within a second ILD structure between the first ILD structure and a second substrate. A bonding structure is disposed within a recess extending through the second substrate. A connector structure is vertically between the first plurality of interconnects and the second plurality of interconnects. The second plurality of interconnects include a first interconnect directly contacting the bonding structure. The second plurality of interconnects also include one or more extensions extending from directly below the first interconnect to laterally outside of the first interconnect and directly above the connector structure, as viewed along a cross-sectional view.
