Integrated circuit structures with deep via structure
Integrated circuit structures having deep via structures, and methods of fabricating integrated circuit structures having deep via structures, are described. For example, an integrated circuit structure includes a plurality of horizontally stacked nanowires. A gate structure is over the plurality of horizontally stacked nanowires. An epitaxial source or drain structure is at an end of the plurality of horizontally stacked nanowires. A conductive trench contact structure is vertically over the epitaxial source or drain structure. A conductive via is vertically beneath and extends into the conductive trench contact structure. The conductive via has a first width beneath the epitaxial source or drain structure less than a second width laterally adjacent to the epitaxial source or drain structure.
Integrated circuit device
An integrated circuit device includes a substrate, having a front surface and a rear surface opposite to each other, and a fin-type active region defined by a trench in the front surface, a device separation layer filling the trench, a source/drain region on the fin-type active region, a first conductive plug arranged on the source/drain region and electrically connected to the source/drain region, a power wiring line at least partially arranged on a lower surface of the substrate, a buried rail connected to the power wiring line through the device separation layer and decreasing in horizontal width toward the power wiring line, and a power via connecting the buried rail to the first conductive plug.
