## Background
BACKGROUND
Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) is a technology used in constructing integrated circuits, such as image sensors, data converters, communication modules, etc. Many integrated circuits or semiconductor arrangements thus comprise CMOS wafers or at least one or more portions of a wafer whereon CMOS technology is implemented. Heat from a CMOS wafer, such as from outgassing, can damage other portions of a semiconductor arrangement. A semiconductor arrangement can also be damaged from stress, such as printed circuit board stress. For example, stress-induced solder joint failure can occur from such stress.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The following disclosure provides many different embodiments, or examples, for implementing different features of the provided subject matter. Specific examples of components and arrangements are described below to simplify the present disclosure. These are, of course, merely examples and are not intended to be limiting. For example, the formation of a first feature over or on a second feature in the description that follows may include embodiments in which the first and second features are formed in direct contact, and may also include embodiments in which additional features may be formed between the first and second features, such that the first and second features may not be in direct contact. In addition, the present disclosure may repeat reference numerals and/or letters in the various examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself dictate a relationship between the various embodiments and/or configurations discussed.
Further, spatially relative terms, such as “beneath,” “below,” “lower,” “above,” “upper” and the like, may be used herein for ease of description to describe one element or feature's relationship to another element(s) or feature(s) as illustrated in the figures. The spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. The apparatus may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein may likewise be interpreted accordingly.
One or more semiconductor arrangements and techniques for forming such semiconductor arrangements are provided. In some embodiments, a semiconductor arrangement comprises a cap wafer. The cap wafer comprises a first vacuum chamber and a second vacuum chamber. The second vacuum chamber is configured as a first spring structure. The semiconductor arrangement comprises a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) wafer formed over the cap wafer. The MEMS wafer comprises a high vacuum chamber coupled to the first vacuum chamber. The high vacuum chamber is configured as a sensing gap. The semiconductor arrangement comprises a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) wafer formed over the MEMS wafer. The CMOS wafer comprises an ambient pressure chamber connected to the second vacuum chamber through a second spring structure. The first spring structure and the second spring structure are operable based upon deformation of the sensing gap. In some embodiments, at least one of the first spring structure or the second spring structure move, such as compress, to release stress that occurs from movement of the semiconductor arrangement, such as movement of a membrane of the MEMS wafer with respect to a poly layer of the MEMS wafer that deforms the sensing gap. Such movement and deformation occurs from a pressure difference between the high vacuum chamber, formed between the membrane and the poly layer, and the ambient pressure chamber connected to ambient air. The ambient pressure chamber is configured as a thermal insulation air gap to insulate the MEMS wafer from heat originating from the CMOS wafer. In this way, CMOS outgassing, stress, and thermal damage are mitigated for the semiconductor arrangement.
A method 100 of forming a semiconductor arrangement is illustrated in FIG. 1, and one or more semiconductor arrangements formed by such a methodology are illustrated in FIGS. 2-14E.

In some embodiments, an etch 902, such as a vapor hydrogen fluoride (VHF) release, a dry etch, or acid etch, is performed to remove the portion of the second oxide layer 210 to form a high vacuum chamber 906. The etch 902 is performed to form a connection 910 between the high vacuum chamber 906 and the first vacuum chamber 604. A portion of the poly layer 302, such as a poly layer 908, is formed between the cap wafer 608 and the high vacuum chamber 906. In some embodiments, the poly layer 908 is formed between the third oxide layer 402 and the high vacuum chamber 906. A portion of the second silicon layer 208 is formed as a membrane 904 over the poly layer 908.

At 106, a CMOS wafer 1202 is bonded to the MEMS wafer 202, as illustrated in FIG. 12. In some embodiments, a eutectic bonding process is performed to bond the CMOS wafer 1202 to the MEMS wafer 202. In some embodiments, the eutectic bonding process utilizes pressure and temperature for bonding. In some embodiments, a first metal structure 1210 of the CMOS wafer 1202, such as germanium metal over a tungsten plug, is bonded to a second metal structure 1208 of the MEMS wafer 202, such as an aluminum structure. In some embodiments, the CMOS wafer 1202 comprises a silicon layer 1206. At 108, an ambient pressure chamber 1204 is formed between the CMOS wafer 1202 and the MEMS wafer 202. In some embodiments, a backside grinding process is performed to remove a portion of the silicon layer 606 of the cap wafer 608. In some embodiments, the backside grinding process is performed to control a thickness of the silicon layer 606 under the second chamber 602, such as to a thickness between about 15 um to about 35 um. The thickness of silicon under the second chamber 602 affects a softness/hardness of a first spring structure for the semiconductor arrangement 200 that is to be formed by the second chamber 602 and the silicon under the second chamber 602 (e.g., a first spring structure 1406 of FIG. 14A).

In some embodiments, a VHF release for oxide is performed through the ambient air pressure channel 1422 after the DRIE process.
At 110, the ambient pressure chamber 1204 is connected, such as through the ambient air pressure channel 1402 of FIG. 14A or the ambient air pressure channel 1422 of FIG. 14B, to ambient air through a second spring structure 1404.
