    摘要: Techniques for selectively removing a metal or conductive material during processing of a semiconductor die for high-voltage applications are provided. In some embodiments, the techniques treat a metallized semiconductor die to transfer a feature from a patterned photoresist layer deposited on the metallized semiconductor die. In addition, the patterned metallized semiconductor die can be subjected to an etch process to remove an amount of metal according to the feature in the pattern, resulting in a treated metallized semiconductor die that defines an opening adjacent to at least a pair of neighboring metal interconnects in the die. The treated metallized semiconductor die can be further treated to backfill the opening with a dielectric material, resulting in a metallized semiconductor die having a backfilled dielectric member. Such a metallized semiconductor die can be further processed according to a process of record until metallization, after which additional selective removal of another amount of metal can be implemented. Semiconductor dies having neighboring metal interconnects separated by backfilled dielectric regions also are provided.

    摘要: The RF filters used in conventional mobile devices often include resonator structures, which often require free-standing air-gap structure to prevent mechanical vibrations of the resonator from being damped by a bulk material. A method for fabricating a resonator structure comprises depositing a non-conformal thin-film to the resonator structure to seal air gap cavities in the resonator structure.

    摘要: An accelerometer includes a mass, suspended by a beam, and associated conductive paths. Each conductive path is subjected to a magnetic field, such that, when a time varying signal is applied to the conductive paths, a characteristic resonant frequency is produced, and when the mass experiences an acceleration, a respective change in the resonant frequency is produced that may be interpreted as acceleration data. Embodiments include methods of manufacturing an accelerometer and systems and devices incorporating the accelerometer.

    摘要: Embodiments herein describe techniques for a semiconductor device including a carrier wafer, and an integrated circuit (IC) formed on a device wafer bonded to the carrier wafer. The IC includes a front end layer having one or more transistors at front end of the device wafer, and a back end layer having a metal interconnect coupled to the one or more transistors. One or more gaps may be formed by removing components of the one or more transistors. Furthermore, the IC includes a capping layer at backside of the device wafer next to the front end layer of the device wafer, filling at least partially the one or more gaps of the front end layer. Moreover, the IC includes one or more air gaps formed within the one or more gaps, and between the capping layer and the back end layer. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
