Abstract:
Provided are space-efficient capacitors that have a higher quality factor than conventional designs and improve coupling of electrical energy from a through-glass via (TGV) to a dielectric. For example, provided is a TGV having a non-rectangular cross-section, where one end of the TGV is coupled to a first metal plate. A dielectric material is formed on the first metal plate. A second metal plate is formed on the dielectric material in a manner that overlaps at least a portion of the first metal plate to form at least one overlapped region of the dielectric material. At least a part of the perimeter of the overlapped region is non-planar. The overlapped region can be formed in a shape of a closed ring, in a plurality of portions of a ring shape, in substantially a quarter of a ring shape, and/or in substantially a half of a ring shape.
Abstract:
An integrated interposer between a first component and a second component includes a substrate. The substrate may have thermal and/or mechanical properties with values lying between the thermal and/or mechanical properties of the first component and the second component. Active devices are disposed on a first surface of the substrate. A contact layer is coupled to the active devices and configured to couple at least the first component and a third component to the integrated interposer. At least one through via(s) is coupled to the contact layer and extends through the substrate to a second surface of the substrate. An interconnect layer is disposed on the second surface of the substrate and coupled to the at least one through via(s). The interconnect layer is configured to couple the second component to the integrated interposer.
