    Abstract: A method of forming semiconductor devices includes providing a wafer having a first side and second side, electrically conductive pads at the second side, and an electrically insulative layer at the second side with openings to the pads. The first side of the wafer is background to a desired thickness and an electrically conductive layer is deposited thereon. Nickel layers are simultaneously electrolessly deposited over the electrically conductive layer and over the pads, and diffusion barrier layers are then simultaneously deposited over the nickel layers. Another method of forming semiconductor devices includes depositing backmetal (BM) layers on the electrically conductive layer including a titanium layer, a nickel layer, and/or a silver layer. The BM layers are covered with a protective coating and a nickel layer is electrolessly deposited over the pads. A diffusion barrier layer is deposited over the nickel layer over the pads, and the protective coating is removed.

    Abstract: Implementations of a method of electroless deposition may include providing a semiconductor substrate including a first largest planar surface and a second largest planar surface; forming a backmetal layer on the second largest planar surface; attaching a tape over the backmetal layer; and electroless depositing a metal layer on a pad included on the first largest planar surface. The method may include, after electroless depositing, removing the tape; and after removing the tape, baking the semiconductor substrate.
