    Abstract: There are provided a semiconductor and a method of fabricating the same. The semiconductor device may include a second semiconductor substrate directly bonded to a first semiconductor substrate. The first semiconductor substrate may include a first through via with an end portion protruding through a first top surface, the first top surface being a top surface of a first semiconductor substrate body, a liner extending to partially expose a side surface of the end portion of the first through via, and a first diffusion barrier layer. The liner may include a third top surface that is positioned at a lower height than a second top surface, the second top surface being a top surface of the end portion of the first through via and substantially equal to the first top surface. Alternatively, the liner may include a third surface positioned at a height that is lower than the second top surface and higher than the first top surface.

    Abstract: A semiconductor die stack includes a base die and core dies stacked over the base die. Each of the base die and the core dies include a semiconductor substrate, a front side passivation layer formed over a front side of the semiconductor substrate, a back side passivation layer over a back side of the semiconductor substrate, a through-via vertically penetrating the semiconductor substrate and the front side passivation layer, and a bump, a support pattern, and a bonding insulating layer formed over the front side passivation layer. Top surfaces of the bump, the support pattern, and the bonding insulating layer are co-planar. The bump is vertically aligned with the through-via. The support pattern is spaced apart from the through-via and the bump. The support pattern includes a plurality of first bars that extend in parallel with each other in a first direction and a plurality of second bars that extend in parallel with each other in a second direction.
