A substrate for photovoltaic device includes a textured surface formed from silicon-based material. The textured surface includes a plurality of cones uniformly distributed across the textured surface. The uniformly distributed cones are configured by etching from a top surface of the substrate using a self-assembled solder dot mask evaporated on the substrate prior to etching. The cones are uniformly distributed as a result of gettering a process chamber prior to forming the solder dot mask. The cones have a height/width ratio between about 1 to about 4, and the cones have a density between 108 to 109 cones/cm2.

Hemispheres and spheres are formed and employed for a plurality of applications. Hemispheres are employed to form a substrate having an upper surface and a lower surface. The upper surface includes peaks of pillars which have a base attached to the lower surface. The peaks have a density defined at the upper surface by an array of hemispherical metal structures that act as a mask during an etch to remove substrate material down to the lower surface during formation of the pillars. The pillars are dense and uniform and include a microscale average diameter. The spheres are formed as independent metal spheres or nanoparticles for other applications.

A method for fabricating a photovoltaic device includes performing a gettering process in a processing chamber which restricts formation of a layer of gettering materials on a substrate and forming a solder layer on the substrate. The solder layer is annealed to form uniformly distributed solder dots which grow on the substrate. The substrate is etched using the solder dots to protect portions of the substrate and form cones in the substrate such that the cones provide a three-dimensional radiation absorbing structure for the photovoltaic device.

摘要:
A preassembly semiconductor device comprises chip soldering structures on a semiconductor chip and substrate soldering structures on a substrate corresponding to the chip soldering structures. The substrate soldering structures extend toward the chip soldering structures for forming solder connections with the chip soldering structures. The chip and the substrate are in preassembly positions relative to one another. The height of the substrate soldering structures is greater than the height of the chip soldering structures. A pre-applied underfill is contiguous with the substrate and is sufficiently thick so as to extend substantially no further than the full height of the substrate soldering structures. In another embodiment the height of the chip soldering structures is greater than the height of the substrate soldering structures and the pre-applied underfill is contiguous with the semiconductor chip and sufficiently thick so as to extend substantially no further than the full height of the chip soldering structures. A process comprises manufacturing semiconductor assemblies from these devices by soldering the chip and the substrate to one another.
