    Abstract: Semiconductor devices having one or more vias filled with an electrically conductive material are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a first side, a plurality of circuit elements proximate to the first side, and a second side opposite the first side. A via can extend between the first and second sides, and a conductive material in the via can extend beyond the second side of the substrate to define a projecting portion of the conductive material. The semiconductor device can have a tall conductive pillar formed over the second side and surrounding the projecting portion of the conductive material, and a short conductive pad formed over the first side and electrically coupled to the conductive material in the via.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device assembly can include a first die package comprising a bottom side; a top side; and lateral sides extending between the top and bottom sides. The assembly can include an encapsulant material encapsulating the first die package. In some embodiments, the assembly includes a cooling cavity in the encapsulant material. The cooling cavity can have a first opening; a second opening; and an elongate channel extending from the first opening to the second opening. In some embodiments, the elongate channel surrounds at least two of the lateral sides of the first die package. In some embodiments, the elongate channel is configured to accommodate a cooling fluid.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for uniform back side exposure of through-silicon vias (TSVs) are disclosed. In one embodiment, a semiconductor device comprises a substrate having a front side with circuit elements formed thereon, and a back side opposite the front side. A TSV extends between the front side and the back side of the substrate, and a dummy feature is disposed over the back side of the substrate, the dummy feature laterally spaced apart from the TSV and substantially coplanar with the TSV. In another embodiment, a semiconductor device comprises a substrate having a TSV formed therethrough, with a control material disposed over the back side of the substrate, the TSV substantially coplanar with the control material.

    Abstract: Methods for making semiconductor devices are disclosed herein. A method configured in accordance with a particular embodiment includes forming a stop layer and a dielectric liner including dielectric material along sidewalls of openings, e.g., through-substrate openings, of the semiconductor device and excess dielectric material outside the openings. The method further includes forming a metal layer including metal plugs within the openings and excess metal. The excess metal and the excess dielectric material are simultaneously chemically-mechanically removed using a slurry including ceria and ammonium persulfate. The slurry is selected to cause selectivity for removing the excess dielectric material relative to the stop layer greater than about 5:1 as well as selectivity for removing the excess dielectric material relative to the excess metal from about 0.5:1 to about 1.5:1.
