The 3D sequential integration, of active devices requires to limit the thermal budget of top tier processing to low temperature (LT) (i.e. TTOP=500 ° C) in order to ensure the stability of the bottom devices. Here we present breakthrough in six areas that were previously considered as potential showstoppers for 3D sequential integration from either a manufacturability, reliability, performance or cost point of view. Our experimental data demonstrate the ability to obtain 1) low-resistance poly-Si gate for the top FETs, 2) Full LT RSD epitaxy including surface preparation, 3) Stability of intermediate BEOL between tiers (iBEOL) with standard ULK/Cu technology, 4) Stable bonding above ULK, 5) Efficient contamination containment for wafers with Cu/ULK iBEOL enabling their re-introduction in FEOL for top FET processing 6) Smart Cut™ process above a CMOS wafer.
