A semiconductor structure includes a first substrate including a first contact structure located on a first pad, and a second substrate including a second contact structure on a second pad. The first contact structure includes a first metal base layer covered by a first nano-twinned metal coating layer. The second contact structure includes a second nano-twinned metal coating layer on the second pad. The first contact structure is connected to the second contact structure, thereby forming a bonding interface between the first nano-twinned metal coating layer and the second nano-twinned metal coating layer.

Semiconductor packages are described which increase the density of electronic components within. The semiconductor package may incorporate interposers with cavities formed into the top and/or bottom. The cavities may then be used as locations for the electronic components. Alternatively, narrow spacer interposers may be used to space apart standard more laterally elongated interposers to form the indentations used to house the electronic components. The semiconductor package designs described herein may be used to reduce footprint, reduce profile and increase electronic component and transistor density for semiconductor products.
