Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a method for forming a gate structure in a semiconductor device. The method comprises forming a SiGe film on a predetermined region of a silicon substrate corresponding to a bit-line node portion where a bit-line junction is formed, growing a silicon film over the silicon substrate having the SiGe film formed thereon, selectively etching the SiGe film, embedding a dielectric material into a portion where the SiGe film is removed, forming a stepped profile on the silicon film by etching a predetermined portion of the silicon film such that the bit-line node portion is included in the stepped profile, and forming a gate on the silicon film having the stepped profile formed therein such that the gate overlaps the stepped profile. The dielectric pad prevents the bit-line junction from spreading downward upon operation of the gate, thereby enhancing a punch-through phenomenon.
Abstract:
Semiconductor devices are disclosed. In an embodiment, a plurality of second semiconductor dies formed with through-silicon vias are stacked on a first semiconductor die. The stack of the second semiconductor dies is encapsulated by an encapsulant. Redistribution layers are formed on one surface of the stack and are connected to the through-silicon vias. Solder balls are attached to the respective redistribution layers. In another embodiment, a plurality of second semiconductor dies formed with through-silicon vias are stacked on a first semiconductor die formed with through-silicon vias. Redistribution layers are formed on the back surface of the first semiconductor die. Solder balls are attached to the respective redistribution layers. Further disclosed are methods for fabricating the semiconductor devices.
Abstract:
A solder attach film includes a first cover film, a flux layer, a solder layer, and a second cover film, and it can be treated or kept in a roll shape. A solder ball forming method using the solder attach film includes preparing a semiconductor package or a semiconductor die, adhering the solder attach film, gridding, and reflowing. In the solder attach film adhering operation, the first cover film and the second cover film are removed, and the flux layer is adhered to electrically conductive pads of the semiconductor package or the semiconductor die. Subsequently, in the reflowing operation, the flux layer is volatilized and removed, and the solder layer is fused and fixed to the electrically conductive pads, so that solder balls are formed.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device and a fabricating method thereof are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, a plurality of semiconductor dies are mounted on a laminating member, for example, a copper clad lamination, having previously formed conductive patterns, followed by performing operations of encapsulating, forming conductive vias, forming a solder resist and sawing, thereby fabricating a chip size package in a simplified manner. Fiducial patterns are further formed on the laminating member, thereby accurately positioning the semiconductor dies at preset positions of the laminating member.
Abstract:
Provided is an adhesive composition for a semiconductor device. For example, the adhesive composition comprises a binder resin and a silicon carbide filler. The silicon carbide filler has relatively high thermal conductivity and a relatively low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). Accordingly, the adhesive composition containing the silicon carbide filler exhibits improved heat dissipation performance and electrical performance due to high thermal conductivity and shows inhibition of delamination or cracking of semiconductor devices due to low CTE. The silicon carbide has high thermal conductivity, but is electrically non-conductive. Therefore, an electrically conductive adhesive can be obtained by additional incorporation of a silver (Ag) filler into the binder resin.

Abstract:
A circuit board has an insulative layer including a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. A plurality of electrically conductive patterns is formed on the first surface of the insulative layer. Conductive lands are formed in a die mounting region of the first surface of the insulative layer and electrically connected to one of the plurality of conductive patterns on the first surface. An extending pattern extends from the conductive lands to outside of the mounting region. A protective layer covers the first surface of the insulative layer and the electrically conductive patterns. A trench is formed in the protective layer to expose the conductive lands and the extending patterns.
