A wafer includes a substrate that includes a channel layer, a first active region, a second active region, and a saw street region between the first active region and the second active region. The wafer includes a first device formed on the substrate in the first active region. The first device includes a first portion of the channel layer. The wafer includes a second device formed on the substrate in the second active region. The second device includes a second portion of the channel layer. The wafer includes a conductive channel between the first active region and the second active region. The conductive channel is in the saw street of the wafer and includes a third portion of the channel layer.

Methods of forming an integrated circuit devices may include providing first and second active regions, an isolation layer, and first and second sacrificial stack structures. The first and second sacrificial stack structures may contact the first and second active regions, and the first and second sacrificial stack structures may each include a channel layer and a sacrificial layer. The methods may also include forming an etch stop layer on the isolation layer, replacing portions of the first and second sacrificial stack structures with first and second source/drain regions, forming a front contact including a front contact plug, forming a back-side insulator, and forming a back contact plug in the isolation layer and the back-side insulator. At least one of a portion of the front contact plug and a portion of the back contact plug may be in the etch stop layer.

What is disclosed is structures and methods of integrating micro devices into system substrate. Further, the disclosure, also relates to methods and structures for enhancing the bonding process of micro-devices into a substrate. More specifically, it relates to expanding the micro device area or bonding area of micro devices.
