A dielectric layer is formed over the first side of the first die and includes a first portion directly over the second die, a second portion encircling the second die, and an opening exposing the second region of the first side of the first die. A second metal bump of a second horizontal size is formed on the second region of the first side of the first die and extending into the opening of the dielectric layer. The second horizontal size is greater than the first horizontal size. An electrical component is bonded to the first side of the first die through the second metal bump.

A method and apparatus for separating a substrate into individual dies and the resulting structure is provided. A modification layer, such as an amorphous layer, is formed within the substrate. A laser focused within the substrate may be used to create the modification layer. The modification layer creates a relatively weaker region that is more prone to cracking than the surrounding substrate material. As a result, the substrate may be pulled apart into separate sections, causing cracks the substrate along the modification layers. Dice or other components may be attached to the substrate before or after separation.

A method includes performing a laser grooving to remove a dielectric material in a wafer to form a trench, wherein the trench extends from a top surface of the wafer to stop at an intermediate level between the top surface and a bottom surface of the wafer. The trench is in a scribe line between two neighboring chips in the wafer. A polymer is filled into the trench and then cured. After the step of curing the polymer, a die saw is performed to separate the two neighboring chips, wherein a kerf line of the die saw cuts through a portion of the polymer filled in the trench.

A semiconductor structure includes a substrate and a conductive carrier-tunneling layer over and contacting the substrate. The conductive carrier-tunneling layer includes first group-III nitride (III-nitride) layers having a first bandgap, wherein the first III-nitride layers have a thickness less than about 5 nm; and second III-nitride layers having a second bandgap lower than the first bandgap, wherein the first III-nitride layers and the second III-nitride layers are stacked in an alternating pattern. The semiconductor structure is free from a III-nitride layer between the substrate and the conductive carrier-tunneling layer. The semiconductor structure further includes an active layer over the conductive carrier-tunneling layer.

The package substrates with through silicon plugs (or vias) described above provide lateral and vertical heat dissipation pathways for semiconductor chips that require thermal management. Designs of through silicon plugs (TSPs) with high duty ratios can most effectively provide heat dissipation. TSP designs with patterns of double-sided combs can provide high duty ratios, such as equal to or greater than 50%. Package substrates with high duty ratios are useful for semiconductor chips that generate large amount of heat. An example of such semiconductor chip is a light-emitting diode (LED) chip.

A system and method for connecting semiconductor dies is provided. An embodiment comprises connecting a first semiconductor die with a first width to a second semiconductor die with a larger second width and that is still connected to a semiconductor wafer. The first semiconductor die is encapsulated after it is connected, and the encapsulant and first semiconductor die are thinned to expose a through substrate via within the first semiconductor die. The second semiconductor die is singulated from the semiconductor wafer, and the combined first semiconductor die and second semiconductor die are then connected to another substrate.

The present disclosure relates to a method for fast and precise alignment and mounting of a top die onto an interposer wafer. The method is performed by applying a hydrophobic self assembled monolayer to a carrier wafer in a pattern defining a top die placement region correlating to an arrangement of a top die on an interposer wafer. A liquid is provided into the top die placement region and a top die is placed into contact with the liquid. The surface tension of the liquid automatically aligns the top die by generating a force causing the top die to overlap with the top die placement region. The liquid is then eliminated and the top die is affixed to the carrier wafer. The carrier wafer is bonded to the interposer wafer, bringing the top die into contact with an interposer.
