    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present application are directed towards an integrated circuit (IC) chip comprising a front-end-of-line (FEOL) through semiconductor-on-substrate via (TSV), as well as a method for forming the IC chip. In some embodiments, a semiconductor layer overlies a substrate. The semiconductor layer may, for example, be or comprise a group III-V semiconductor and/or some other suitable semiconductor(s). A semiconductor device is on the semiconductor layer, and a FEOL layer overlies the semiconductor device. The FEOL TSV extends through the FEOL layer and the semiconductor layer to the substrate at a periphery of the IC chip. An intermetal dielectric (IMD) layer overlies the FEOL TSV and the FEOL layer, and an alternating stack of wires and vias is in the IMD layer.
