Abstract

A device includes a device layer comprising a first transistor and a second transistor; a first interconnect structure on a front-side of the device layer; and a second interconnect structure on a backside of the device layer. The second interconnect structure comprising a first dielectric layer on the backside of the device layer, wherein a semiconductor material is disposed between the first dielectric layer and a first source/drain region of the first transistor; a contact extending through the first dielectric layer to a second source/drain region of the second transistor; and a first conductive line electrically connected to the second source/drain region of the second transistor through the contact.
