Abstract: A semiconductor device assembly that includes carbon nanofibers (CNFs) for heat dissipation has a CNF layer. Molding compound encapsulates the CNF layer to form an encapsulated CNF layer. The molding compound extends between individual adjacent CNFs within the encapsulated CNF layer, and upper edges of at least a portion of individual CNFs within the encapsulated CNF layer are exposed along an upper surface of the encapsulated CNF layer. The upper surface of the CNF layer is removably attached to a bottom surface of a carrier wafer.

Abstract: A semiconductor device having monolithic conductive cylinders, and associated systems and methods, are disclosed herein. The semiconductor device can include a semiconductor substrate, a conductive pad, an opening, and a top dielectric layer. The conductive pad may be at a first surface of the semiconductor substrate. The opening may be ring-shaped and extend through the semiconductor substrate from the conductive pad to a second surface and define a side wall. The liner may coat the side wall and the top dielectric layer may cover the second surface and may fill the opening. A second ring-shaped opening may be formed through the semiconductor device and the opening and a conductive material plated therein.

Abstract: A semiconductor device assembly including a first semiconductor device having a front side and a back side opposite of the front side, metal interconnects formed on the back side, and a polymer material deposited over the first semiconductor device to encapsulate the sidewalls, back side, and metal interconnects. The first semiconductor device is planarized to expose the upper surface of the metal interconnects. The assembly further includes a second semiconductor device having a top side and a bottom side opposite of the top side, a polymer material deposited over the second semiconductor device to encapsulate the sidewalls and bottom side. The second semiconductor device is stacked over the first device and hybrid bonded together such that each metal interconnect on the first semiconductor device back side aligns with and electrically couples to a corresponding metal interconnect on the second semiconductor device bottom side.

Abstract: Conductive buffer layers for semiconductor die assemblies, and associated systems and methods are disclosed. In an embodiment, a semiconductor die assembly includes first and second semiconductor dies directly bonded to each other. The first semiconductor die includes a first copper pad and the second semiconductor die includes a second copper pad. The first and second copper pads form an interconnect between the first and second semiconductor dies, and the interconnect includes a conductive buffer material between the first and second copper pads, where the conductive buffer material includes aggregates of conductive particles. In some embodiments, the first and second copper pads are not conjoined but electrically connected to each other through the conductive buffer material. In some embodiments, the conductive buffer material is porous such that the aggregates of conductive particles can be compressed together in response to the pressure applied to the conductive buffer layer.

Abstract: A thermocompression bonding (TCB) apparatus can include a wall having a height measured in a first direction and configured to be positioned between a first pressing surface and a second pressing surface of a semiconductor bonding apparatus. The apparatus can include a cavity at least partially surrounded by the wall, the cavity sized to receive a semiconductor substrate and a stack of semiconductor dies positioned between the semiconductor substrate and the first pressing surface, the stack of semiconductor dies and semiconductor substrate having a combined unpressed stack height as measured in the first direction. In some embodiments, the unpressed stack height is greater than the height of the wall, and the wall is configured to be contacted by the first pressing surface to limit movement of the first pressing surface toward the second pressing surface during a semiconductor bonding process.
