A high density interconnect structure incorporating a plurality of laminated dielectric layers is fabricated using a SPI/epoxy crosslinking copolymer blend adhesive in order to maintain the stability of the already fabricated structure during the addition of the later laminations while also maintaining the repairability of the high density interconnect structure.
摘要:
A high density interconnect structure incorporating a plurality of laminated dieletric layers is fabricated using thermoplastic adhesive layers of progressively lower glass transition temperature in order to maintain the stability of the already fabricated structure during the addition of the later laminations. This structure also facilitates the removal of only a portion of the high density interconnect structure where a fault in the system can be corrected in one of the upper layers of the high density interconnect structure.

A dual layer resist configuration is employed for photopatterning high resolution conductive patterns on underlying polymeric or ceramic substrates, particularly substrates exhibiting surface roughness and non-planar design features such as channels, bosses and ridges. More particularly, a thin underlayer of ablatable photoabsorptive polymer is disposed on a metal coated substrate, after which a thicker layer of substantially transparent material is disposed over the polymer. A beam of laser energy, such as that produced by an ultraviolet excimer layer, is directed through the upper layer and is absorbed by the lower layer which is ablated and simultaneously removes the thick layer above it. This results in the ability to etch high resolution features on polymeric and other substrates, particularly copper coated polyetherimide circuit boards. The resist system is also applicable to VLSI wafers even though such wafers usually do not exhibit surface roughness on the scale generally considered herein. It is also equally applicable in various high density interconnect systems used for the direct connection of chip devices. A mask for patterning and a method for making it are also seen to be desirable because of the high laser energy densities generally desired for thorough ablation. An alternate method is also disclosed which employs two laser exposure steps with the first step being a masked operation on only an ablatable layer and with the second step being an unmasked operation on a dual layer material.
摘要:
A multichip integrated circuit package comprises a substrate to which is affixed one or more integrated circuit chips having interconnection pads. A polymer film overlying and bridging integrated circuit chips present is provided with a plurality of via openings to accommodate a layer of interconnection metallization which serves to connect various chips and chip pads within the interconnection pads disposed on the chips. A significant advantage of the packaging method and configuration of the present invention is the ability for the polymer film to be removed. This significantly improves testability and effectively provides wafer scale integration circuit packages which are free of problems associated with yield and testability.
摘要:
A method for producing holes in a polymer film includes the steps of irradiating a spot on the film with a burst of focused laser energy at a level sufficient to damage the film without puncturing it and then subsequently plasma etching the irradiated film so as to remove the damaged portions. This method is particularly applicable to the formation of multichip integrated circuit packages in which a plurality of microcircuit chips are affixed to an underlying substrate which is coated with a polymer film covering the chips and the substrates. The holes are provided for the purpose of interconnecting the chips or making intrachip connections by means of a subsequently applied metallization layer.
摘要:
A self-standing cooking apparatus is disclosed which consists of a pressurizable vessel having a door which can be latched and sealed, an integral steam-pressure source and integral upper and lower heating rod elements which serve as broil elements and bake elements, respectively, and a water-filled tray which can be disposed above the upper heating rod. An electrical control circuit enables selective energization of the bake and broil heat elements by continuous or controlled duration pulses of current which control the proportion of infrared energy that will be produced by the heating rods. The oven can be operated under pressure with the heating rods applying infrared radiation to the foodstuff being cooked in order to obtain browning or crisping of the foodstuff which is cooked at elevated pressure. The oven can also be operated in a conventional bake mode, a conventional broil mode, a steam cooking mode, a sealed cooking and warming mode and a toasting mode. Reinforcing fins lying in parallel planes are secured to and encircle the exterior of the container to provide necessary additional strength for the pressurizable vessel walls to withstand a maximum design pressure.
摘要:
A low-cost conductor, e.g. a printed circuit, is prepared by applying a mixture of a metallic powder and polymer on a substrate and curing the polymer, followed by an augmentation replacement reaction being effected to replace some of the metallic powder with a more noble metal in such a way that the total volume of deposited metal on the surface exceeds that of the original metal powder at that surface. This procedure produces contiguous layer of conducting metal on the substrate. The conductors thus formed can easily be soldered without leaching using a conventional tin-lead solders.

A light source (10) includes a light emitting component (32), such as a UV/blue light emitting diode or laser diode. A layer (62, 162, 262, 362) of a phosphor material is spaced from the light emitting component by a layer (60, 160, 260, 360) of a material which is transmissive to the light emitted by the light emitting component. The phosphor material converts a portion of the light emitted by the light emitting component to light of a longer wavelength such as yellow light. In a preferred embodiment, the light transmissive layer valise in thickness over the light emitting component so that the phosphor is spaced further from the diode in regions where the emission is higher. This increases the Surface area of the phosphor in these regions and minimizes the effects of overheating and saturation on the phosphor emission.
摘要:
HDI fabrication techniques are employed to form a variety of optical waveguide structures in polymer materials. Adaptive optical connections are formed, taking into account the actual position and orientation of devices which may deviate from the ideal. Structures include solid light-conducting structures, hollow light-conducting structures which are also suitable for conducting cooling fluid, and optical switching devices employing liquid crystal material. A "shrink back" method may be used to form a tunnel in polymer material which is then filled with an uncured polymer material that shrinks upon curing.
