Abstract:
A semiconductor device and methods for manufacturing the same are disclosed. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor stack structure attached to a wafer handle having at least one aperture that extends through the wafer handle to an exposed portion of the semiconductor stack structure. A thermally conductive and electrically resistive polymer substantially fills the at least one aperture and contacts the exposed portion of the semiconductor stack structure. One method for manufacturing the semiconductor device includes forming patterned apertures in the wafer handle to expose a portion of the semiconductor stack structure. The patterned apertures may or may not be aligned with sections of RF circuitry making up the semiconductor stack structure. A following step includes contacting the exposed portion of the semiconductor stack structure with a polymer and substantially filling the patterned apertures with the polymer, wherein the polymer is thermally conductive and electrically resistive.

A semiconductor device and methods for manufacturing the same are disclosed. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor stack structure having a first surface and a second surface. A first polymer having a high thermal conductivity and a high electrical resistivity is disposed on the first surface of the semiconductor stack structure. An exemplary method includes providing the semiconductor stack structure with the second surface in direct contact with a wafer handle. A next step involves removing the wafer handle to expose the second surface of the semiconductor stack structure. A following step includes disposing a second polymer having high thermal conductivity and high electrical resistivity directly onto the second surface of the semiconductor stack structure. Additional methods apply silicon nitride layers on the first surface and second surface of the semiconductor stack structure before disposing the first polymer and second polymer to realize the semiconductor device.
