Abstract:
Provided is a die structure including a die, a bonding structure, and a protection structure. The die includes a substrate and a metal feature disposed over the substrate. The bonding structure is disposed over the die. The bonding structure includes a bonding dielectric layer and a bonding metal layer disposed in the bonding dielectric layer. The bonding metal layer is electrically connected to the metal feature of the die. The protection structure is disposed between a top portion of the bonding metal layer and a top portion of the bonding dielectric layer. A die stack structure and a method of fabricating the die structure are also provided.

Claim (Index 15):
The die stack structure of  claim 14 , wherein the hybrid bonding structure comprises:\n a first bonding structure and a first protection structure, wherein the first bonding structure is disposed over the first die, the first bonding structure comprises a first bonding dielectric layer and a first bonding metal layer disposed in the first bonding dielectric layer, and the first protection structure is disposed between a top portion of the first bonding metal layer and a top portion of the first bonding dielectric layer, a second bonding structure and a second protection structure, wherein the second bonding structure is disposed over the second die, the second bonding structure comprises a second bonding dielectric layer and a second bonding metal layer disposed in the second bonding dielectric layer, and the second protection structure is disposed between a top portion of the second bonding metal layer and a top portion of the second bonding dielectric layer, the first bonding dielectric layer and the second bonding dielectric layer are bonded together to form the bonding dielectric stack, the first bonding metal layer and the second bonding metal layer are bonded together to form the bonding metal stack, and the first protection structure and the second protection structure are bonded together to form the protection structure.
