Abstract

A method for manufacturing semiconductor devices includes providing a stack having a semiconductor wafer and a glass substrate with openings and at least one trench attached to the semiconductor wafer. The semiconductor wafer includes a plurality of semiconductor devices. The openings of the glass substrate leave respective areas of the semiconductor devices uncovered by the glass substrate and the trench connects the openings. A metal layer is formed at least on exposed walls of the trench and the openings and on the uncovered areas of the semiconductor devices of the semiconductor wafer. A metal region is formed by electroplating metal in the openings and the trench and by subsequently grinding the glass substrate to remove the trenches. The stack of the semiconductor wafer and the attached glass substrate is cut to separate the semiconductor devices.
