- 3. The semiconductor component of claim 1 wherein at least one of the first and second substrates comprises silicon.
- 4. The semiconductor component of claim 1 wherein the vertical contact structure is pin-shaped.
- 5. A semiconductor component fabricated by the following steps:forming a first component comprising a first contact region on an upper surface of a first substrate; forming a second component comprising a second contact region on an upper surface of a second substrate, the second substrate comprising a lower surface, the second substrate having a thickness, the second substrate also comprising a hole extending from the upper surface at least partially through the second substrate towards the lower surface; eroding the lower surface of the second surface to reduce the thickness of the second substrate and so that the hole extends from the upper surface to the lower surface; circulating a layer of bisbenzocyclobutene between the lower surface of the second substrate and the upper surface of the first substrate, the bisbenzocyclobutene comprising monomer units having structures selected from the group consisting of: wherein R is selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic radical and an aromatic radical and wherein R′ is selected from the group consisting of to provide a bisbenzocyclobutene layer;drying the bisbenzocyclobutene layer; joining the upper layer of the first substrate to the lower layer of the second substrate with the bisbenzocyclobutene layer sandwiched therebetween by initially heating the component at a rate ranging from 0.5-5°/min to a temperature ranging from 180-220° C.; holding the component at said temperature until a degree of polymerization of the bisbenzocyclobutene from 80 to 98% is achieved, secondarily heating the component to a temperature of 250 to 350° C. for complete polymerization, and rapidly cooling the component; and electrically connecting the first contact region to the second contact region with a vertical contact structure that extends from the second contact region, through the hole and to the first contact region, the vertical contact structure comprises a material selected from the group consisting of tungsten, tungsten silicide, tungsten nitride, and mixtures thereof.
