Claim 0:
1. A bonded structure, comprising:
a first semiconductor structure comprising a first substrate, first devices and a first interconnect structure;
a second semiconductor structure comprising a second substrate, second devices and a second interconnect structure over a first surface of the second substrate, wherein the second interconnect structure comprises a top metal level including a plurality of metal features, wherein at least some of the plurality of metal features comprise a contact pad region and a second region contiguous with the contact pad region;
a bonding layer between an array of metal features and a first surface of the first substrate;
a bonding link portion contacting each of the second regions of the plurality of metal features and electrically connecting each of the plurality of metal features to the bonding layer; and
an array of contact pads over a second surface of the first substrate, wherein the contact pad regions of the plurality of metal features form an array pattern that corresponds with an array pattern of the contact pads formed over the second surface of the first substrate.
