摘要:
A method and apparatus for forming solder bumps by molten solder deposition into cavity arrays in a substrate immediately followed by solidification of molten solder such that precise replication of cavity volumes is consistently achieved in formed solder bump arrays. Various solder filling problems, such as those caused by surface tension and oxidation effects, are overcome by a combination of narrow molten Solder dispense slots and solidification of dispensed molten solder.
摘要:
A wafer-scale apparatus and method is described for the automation of forming, aligning and attaching two-dimensional arrays of microoptic elements on semiconductor and other image display devices, backplanes, optoelectronic boards, and integrated optical systems. In an ordered fabrication sequence, a mold plate comprised of optically designed cavities is formed by reactive ion etching or alternative processes, optionally coated with a release material layer and filled with optically specified materials by an automated fluid-injection and defect-inspection subsystem. Optical alignment fiducials guide the disclosed transfer and attachment processes to achieve specified tolerances between the microoptic elements and corresponding optoelectronic devices and circuits. The present invention applies to spectral filters, waveguides, fiber-optic mode-transformers, diffraction gratings, refractive lenses, diffractive lens/Fresnel zone plates, reflectors, and to combinations of elements and devices, including microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and liquid crystal device (LCD) matrices for adaptive, tunable elements. Preparation of interfacial layer properties and attachment process embodiments are taught.
摘要:
A method for constructing a composite solder transfer moldplate for flip chip wafer bumping of a substrate, comprising the steps of coating at least one polymer layer onto a first side of a transparent plate, the plate having a thermal expansion coefficient similar to that of the substrate; and forming a multiplicity of cavities in a polymer layer on one side of the plate, each cavity being for receiving solder. A moldplate made by the method. The structure has required behavior through temperature excursions between room temperature and various solder molten temperatures.
摘要:
Improved interconnects are produced by injection molded solder which fills mold arrays with molten solder so that columns that have much greater height to width aspect ratios greater than one are formed, rather than conventional flip chip bumps. The columns may have filler particles or reinforcing conductors therein. In the interconnect structures produced, the cost and time of a subsequent underfill step is reduced or avoided. The problem of incompatibility with optical interconnects between chips because underfills require high loading of silica fillers which scatter light, is solved, thus allowing flip chips to incorporate optical interconnects.
摘要:
A process of copper plating a through-hole in a printed circuit board, and the printed circuit board made from such process. The process comprises: providing a printed circuit board with at least two copper interconnect lines separated by an insulator in the vertical direction; providing a through-hole in the printed circuit board in the vertical direction such that the interconnect lines provide a copper land in the through-hole; applying a seed layer to an interior surface of the through-hole; removing an outermost portion of the seed layer from the interior surface of the through-hole with a laser; applying copper on the seed layer.

摘要:
The present disclosure relates generally to semiconductor, integrated circuits, and particularly, but not by way of limitation, to centrifugal methods of filling high-aspect ratio vias and trenches with powders, pastes, suspensions of materials to act as any of a conducting, structural support, or protective member of an electronic component.
摘要:
The invention is directed to structure and methods of improving the cooling capacity of chip packaging modules. The chip packaging module has a substrate with thin-film wiring on one side and grooves or channels etched on one or both sides where coolant pumps are embedded. The coolant pumps are used to enhance the liquid flowing inside the module. The coolant flows through the chips within the vias in the chips or around the chips when the chips do not have vias. Both cooling modes, single or two-phase modes can be adopted in the module.
