摘要:
An optical structure that reduces the effects of spontaneous emissions from the active region of a laser. An optical structure includes optimizations to reduce the effects of spontaneous emissions. The optical structure includes a VCSEL with top and bottom DBR mirrors and an active region connected to the mirrors. The optical structure further includes a photodiode connected to the VCSEL. One or more optimizations may be included in the optical structure including optically absorbing materials, varying the geometry of the structure to change reflective angles, using optical apertures, changing the reflectivity of one or more mirrors, changing the photodiode to be more impervious to spontaneous emissions, and using ion implants to reduce photoluminescence efficiency.

摘要:
Systems for wafer level burn-in (WLBI) of semiconductor devices (210, 215) are presented. Systems having at least two electrodes for the application of electrical bias and/or thermal power on each side of a wafer (100) having back (105) and front (110) electrical contacts for semiconductor devices borne by the wafer (100) is described. Methods of wafer level burnin using the system are also described. Furthermore, a pliable conductive layer (220) is described for supplying pins or contacts (110) on device side of a wafer with electrical contact. The pliable conductive layer (220) can allow for an effective series R in each of the devices borne by the wafer (100), thus helping keep voltage bias level consistent. The pliable conductive layer can also prevent damage to a wafer when pressure is applied to it by chamber contacts (210, 215) and pressure onto surfaces of the wafer (100) during burn-in operations. A cooling system (660) is also described for enabling the application of a uniform temperature to the wafer (100) undergoing burn-in.
