摘要:
A method of bonding two elements such as wafers used in microelectronics applications is disclosed. One inventive aspect relates to a method for bonding comprising producing on a first main surface of a first element a first solder ball, producing on a first main surface of a second element a second solder ball, providing contact between the first solder ball and the second solder ball, bonding the first element and the second element by applying a reflow act whereby the solder balls melt and form a joined solder ball structure. Prior to the bonding, the first solder ball is laterally embedded in a nonconductive material, such that the upper part of the first solder ball is not covered by the non-conductive material. Devices related to such methods are also disclosed.

The present invention is related to an image sensor packaging technique based on a Ball Grid Array (BGA) IC packaging technique, further referred to as image sensor ball grid array (ISBGA). A transparent cover is attached to a semiconductor substrate. Depending on the method of attaching the cover to the substrate a hermetic or non-hermitic sealing is obtained. The obtained structure can be connected trough wire-bonding or flip chip connection.

The present invention provides a method of transfer of a first planar substrate with two major surfaces to a second substrate, comprising the steps of: forming the first planar substrate, attaching one of the major surfaces of the first planar substrate to a carrier by means of a release layer; attaching the other major surface of the first substrate to the second substrate with a curable polymer adhesive layer; partly curing the polymer adhesive layer, disconnecting the release layer from the first substrate to separate the first substrate from the camer, followed by coing the polymer adhesive layer.

The present invention may provide a particle or radiation detector or imager which may be used for accurate recording of medical (2-D) X-ray images. The imager includes at least one detector panel. The detector panel includes a microgap detector with an array of pixel electrodes of a novel form. Each pixel electrode is insulated from a planar cathode by means of an insulating layer. Each pixel electrode is connected to an underlying contact by means of a via hole in the insulating layer. The insulating layer is preferably conformal with the electrodes. The underlying contact is connected to an electronic measuring element which preferably lies underneath the electrode and is about the same size as the electrode. The measuring element may be a storage device, a digital counter or similar. A switching transistor is connected to the measuring device. The switching transistor may be a thin film transistor. Alternatively, both measuring element and transistor may be formed in a single crystal semiconductor, e.g. a VLSI, and a complete imager formed from several detector panels in an array. The drift electrode of the microgap detector preferably includes a photocathode. The photocathode may be directly evaporated onto a phosphor.
