Abstract

A semiconductor structure includes a dielectric layer, a conductive pad embedded in the dielectric layer, a semiconductor substrate disposed on the dielectric layer and including a via opening with a notch in proximity to the dielectric layer, a through substrate via (TSV) disposed in the via opening of the semiconductor substrate and extending into the dielectric layer to land on the conductive pad, and a dielectric liner disposed in the via opening of the semiconductor substrate and filling the notch to laterally separate the TSV from the semiconductor substrate. A surface of the dielectric liner facing the TSV is substantially leveled with an inner sidewall of the dielectric layer facing the TSV.
