Abstract:
A method of making a mounted gallium nitride (GaN) device includes obtaining a device structure comprising a silicon layer, a silicon carbide (SiC) layer over the silicon layer, and a GaN layer over the SiC layer. The GaN layer is processed to form an active layer of active devices and interconnect over the GaN layer. After the step of processing the GaN layer, a gold layer is formed on the silicon layer. The device structure is attached to a heat sink structure using the gold layer. The mounted GaN device includes the SiC layer over the polysilicon layer and the GaN layer over the SiC layer. The active layer is over the GaN layer.
Abstract:
A semiconductor structure (100) includes a substrate (110) having a first surface (111) with a mold lock feature (101). The semiconductor structure also includes a semiconductor chip (120) located over the first surface of the substrate. The semiconductor structure further includes an electrical isolator structure (340) located over the first surface of the substrate. The electrical isolator structure includes an electrical lead (341, 342) and an electrically insulative element (343) molded to the electrical lead. An optional portion (444) of the electrical isolator structure is located in the mold lock feature. The semiconductor structure additionally includes an adhesive element (450) located between and coupling the electrical isolator structure and the first surface of the substrate.
Abstract:
A wire bond-less electronic component is for use with a circuit external to the wire bond-less electronic component. The wire bond-less electronic component includes a support substrate (110, 410), an electronic device (130) over the support substrate, and a cover (140, 440, 540) located over the electronic device and the support substrate. The cover includes an interconnect structure (141, 441, 541) electrically coupled to the electronic device and adapted to electrically couple together the electronic device and the circuit for providing impedance transformation of an electrical signal between the electronic device and the circuit.
