A chip mounting system (1) includes: a chip supplying unit (11) for supplying a chip (CP); a stage (31) for holding a substrate (WT) in an orientation in which a mounting face (WTf) for mounting the chip (CP) faces vertically downward (Z direction); a head (33H) for holding the chip (CP) from the vertically downward direction (Z direction); and a head drive unit (36) for, by causing vertically upward (+Z direction) movement of the head (33H) holding the chip (CP), causes the head (33H) to approach the stage (31) to mount the chip (CP) on the mounting face (WTf) of the substrate (WT).

Provided are a flip chip laser bonding apparatus and a flip chip laser bonding method, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method for flip chip laser bonding, in which a semiconductor chip in a flip chip form is bonded to a substrate by using a laser beam. According to the flip chip laser bonding apparatus and the flip chip laser bonding method, even a semiconductor chip that is bent or is likely to bend may also be bonded to a substrate without contact failure of solder bumps by bonding the semiconductor chip to the substrate by laser bonding while pressurizing the semiconductor chip.

A multi-layer wafer and method of manufacturing such wafer are provided. The method includes applying at least one stress compensating polymer layer to at least one of two heterogeneous wafers and low temperature bonding the two heterogeneous wafers to bond the stress compensating polymer layer to the other of the two heterogeneous wafers to form a multi-layer wafer pair. The multi-layer wafer comprises two heterogeneous wafers, at least one of the heterogeneous wafers having a stress compensating polymer layer. The two heterogeneous wafers are low temperature bonded together to bond the stress compensating polymer layer to the other of the two heterogeneous wafers.

A method includes picking up a first package component, removing an oxide layer on an electrical connector of the first package component, placing the first package component on a second package component after the oxide layer is removed, and bonding the first package component to the second package component.

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device in which a prescribed target lamination number of semiconductor chips are laminated on a substrate, the method includes: a first lamination step of laminating while temporarily bonding one or more semiconductor chips on the substrate to thereby form a first chip laminate body; a first permanent bonding step of pressurizing while heating from the upper side of the first chip laminate body to thereby collectively and permanently bond the one or more semiconductor chips; a second lamination step of sequentially laminating while temporarily bonding two or more semiconductor chips on the permanently bonded semiconductor chips to thereby form a second chip laminate body; and a second permanent bonding step of pressurizing while heating from the upper side of the second chip laminate body to thereby collectively permanently bond the two or more semiconductor chips.

A semiconductor device includes a first die; a second die attached over the first die; a first metal enclosure and a second metal enclosure both directly contacting and vertically extending between the first die and the second die, wherein the first metal enclosure peripherally encircles a set of one or more internal interconnects and the second metal enclosure peripherally encircles the first metal enclosure without directly contacting the first metal enclosure; a first enclosure connector electrically connecting the first metal enclosure to a first voltage level; a second enclosure connector electrically connecting the second metal enclosure to a second voltage level; and wherein the first metal enclosure, the second metal enclosure, the first enclosure connector, and the second enclosure connector are configured to provide an enclosure capacitance.

In a die-substrate assembly, a copper inter-component joint is formed by bonding corresponding copper interconnect structures together directly, without using solder. The copper interconnect structures have distal layers of (111) crystalline copper that enable them to bond together at a relatively low temperature (e.g., below 300 C.) compared to the relatively high melting point (about 1085 C.) for the bulk copper of the rest of the interconnect structures. By avoiding the use of solder, the resulting inter-component joint will not suffer from the adverse IMC/EM effects of conventional, solder-based joints. The distal surfaces of the interconnect structures may be curved (e.g., one concave and the other convex) to facilitate mating the two structures and improve the reliability of the physical contact between the two interconnect structures. The bonding may be achieved using directed microwave radiation and microwave-sensitive flux, instead of uniform heating.
