Abstract:
A semiconductor device structure is provided. The semiconductor device structure includes a semiconductor substrate having a first surface, a second surface opposing the first surface, and sidewalls defining a recess that passes through the semiconductor substrate. A first interconnect layer is within a first dielectric structure disposed along the second surface, and a bonding pad is in the recess and extends to the first interconnect layer. A dielectric filling layer is also within the recess. The dielectric filling layer has an opening over a portion of the bonding pad and a curved upper surface over the bonding pad. A nickel layer is over the bonding pad and in the opening.

Claim (Index 17):
The structure of  claim 13 , further comprising:\n an opaque layer disposed over a top surface of the second dielectric structure that is facing away from the semiconductor substrate; wherein the second dielectric structure has additional sidewalls defining additional recesses laterally separated from the recess; and wherein the additional recesses extend through the opaque layer.
