Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards a method for forming a semiconductor structure. The method includes bonding a first semiconductor wafer to a second semiconductor wafer. A bond interface is disposed between the first and second semiconductor wafers. The first semiconductor wafer has a peripheral region laterally surrounding a central region. A support structure is formed between a first outer edge of the first semiconductor wafer and a second outer edge of the second semiconductor wafer. The support structure is disposed within the peripheral region. A thinning process is performed on the second semiconductor wafer.

A die bonding system including a bond head assembly for bonding a die to a substrate is provided. The die includes a first plurality of fiducial markings, and the substrate includes a second plurality of fiducial markings. The die bonding system also includes an imaging system configured for simultaneously imaging one of the first plurality of fiducial markings and one of the second plurality of fiducial markings along a first optical path while the die is carried by the bond head assembly. The imaging system is also configured for simultaneously imaging another of the first plurality of fiducial markings and another of the second plurality of fiducial markings along a second optical path while the die is carried by the bond head assembly. Each of the first and second optical paths are independently configurable to image any area of the die including one of the first plurality of fiducial markings.
