    Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) integrated circuit (IC) includes a first IC and a second IC. The first IC includes a MEMS device and a first bonding structure. The second IC includes a second bonding structure. The first and second bonding structures are bonded together to couple the first IC to the second IC. A conformal barrier layer is disposed over a surface of the second IC nearest the first IC. An etch isolation structure is arranged beneath the surface of the second IC and encloses a sacrificial region which is arranged on either side of the second bonding structure and which is arranged in the second IC.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) structure is provided. The IC structure includes an IC substrate including active devices which are coupled together through a conductive interconnect structure arranged thereover. The conductive interconnect structure includes a series of horizontal conductive layers and dielectric regions arranged between neighboring horizontal conductive layers. The conductive interconnect structure includes an uppermost conductive horizontal region with a planar top surface region. A MEMS substrate is arranged over the IC substrate and includes a flexible or moveable structure that flexes or moves commensurate with a force applied to the flexible or moveable structure. The active devices of the IC substrate are arranged to establish analysis circuitry to facilitate electrical measurement of a capacitance between the uppermost conductive horizontal region and the flexible or moveable structure.
