A self-densifying interconnection is formed between a high-temperature semiconductor device selected from a GaN or SiC-based device and a substrate. The interconnection includes a matrix of micron-sized silver particles in an amount from approximately 10 to 60 weight percent; the micron-sized silver particles having a particle size ranging from approximately 0.1 microns to 15 microns. Bonding particles are used to chemically bind the matrix of micron-sized silver particles. The bonding particles are core silver nanoparticles with in-situ formed surface silver nanoparticles chemically bound to the surface of the core silver nanoparticles and, at the same time, chemically bound to the matrix of micron-sized silver particles. The bonding particles have a core particle size ranging from approximately 10 to approximately 100 nanometers while the in-situ formed surface silver nanoparticles have a particle size of approximately 3-9 nanometers.

A thermal interface material may be formed comprising a polymer material and a self-healing constituent. The thermal interface material may be used in an integrated circuit assembly between at least one integrated and a heat dissipation device, wherein the self-healing constituent changes the physical properties of the thermal interface material in response to thermo-mechanical stresses to prevent failure modes from occurring during the operation of the integrated circuit assembly.

Representative implementations of techniques and devices are used to reduce or prevent conductive material diffusion into insulating or dielectric material of bonded substrates. Misaligned conductive structures can come into direct contact with a dielectric portion of the substrates due to overlap, especially while employing direct bonding techniques. A barrier interface that can inhibit the diffusion is disposed generally between the conductive material and the dielectric at the overlap.

A method for forming a semiconductor structure includes following operations. A first substrate including a first side, a second side opposite to the first side, and a metallic pad disposed over the first side is received. A dielectric structure including a first trench directly above the metallic pad is formed. A second trench is formed in the dielectric structure and a portion of the first substrate. A sacrificial layer is formed to fill the first trench and the second trench. A third trench is formed directly above the metallic pad. A barrier ring and a bonding structure are formed in the third trench. A bonding layer is disposed to bond the first substrate to a second substrate. A portion of the second side of the first substrate is removed to expose the sacrificial layer. The sacrificial layer is removed by an etchant.
