ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a microelectronics device is provided, wherein the microelectronics device is formed on a substrate having a frontside and a backside. The method comprises forming a circuit element on the frontside of the substrate from a plurality of layers deposited on the frontside of the substrate, wherein the plurality of layers includes an intermediate electrical contact layer, and forming an interconnect structure after forming the electrical contact layer. The interconnect structure includes a contact pad formed on the backside of the substrate, and a through-substrate interconnect in electrical communication with the contact pad, wherein the through-substrate interconnect extends from the backside of the substrate to the electrical contact layer.
