A method of joining a semiconductor die to a substrate includes: applying a solder preform to a metal region of the semiconductor die or to a metal region of the substrate, the solder preform having a maximum thickness of 30 μm and a lower melting point than both metal regions; forming a soldered joint between the metal region of the semiconductor die and the metal region of the substrate via a diffusion soldering process and without applying pressure directly to the die; and setting a soldering temperature of the diffusion soldering process so that the solder preform melts and fully reacts with the metal region of the semiconductor die and the metal region of the substrate to form one or more intermetallic phases throughout the entire soldered joint, each intermetallic phase having a melting point above the melting point of the preform and the soldering temperature.

A method of using a solder reflow oven can include disposing at least one substrate including solder in a chamber of the oven. The method can include decreasing a pressure of the chamber to a first pressure between about 0.1-50 Torr. After decreasing the pressure of the chamber, the temperature of the at least one substrate can be increased to a first temperature. Formic acid vapor can be admitted into the chamber above the at least one substrate while nitrogen is discharged into the chamber below the at least one substrate. The method can also include removing at least a portion of the formic acid vapor from the enclosure. After the removing step, the temperature of the at least one substrate can be further increased to a second temperature higher than the first temperature. The at least one substrate can be maintained at the second temperature for a first time. And then, the at least one substrate can be cooled.

In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor package, information with respect to a downward warpage of a reference package substrate, which may be bent with respect to a long axis and/or a short axis of the reference package substrate in applying heat to the reference package substrate to which a plurality of semiconductor chips may be attached using a die attach film (DAF), may be obtained. A package substrate, which may include a first surface to which the semiconductor chips may be attached using the DAF and a second surface opposite to the first surface, may be rotated with respect to the long axis or the short axis at an angle selected based on the information. The heat may be applied to the package substrate to cure the DAF and correct a warpage of the package substrate. Thus, warpage of the package substrate may be corrected for.

Post processing steps for additional structure such as reflective layers, fillers, black matrix or other layers may be used to improve the out coupling or confining of the generated LED light. In another example, dielectric and metallic layers may be used to integrate an electro-optical thin film device into the system substrate with the transferred micro devices. In another example, color conversion layers are integrated into the system substrate to create different output from the micro devices.

A manufacturing method includes the step of forming a diced semiconductor wafer (10) including semiconductor chips (11) from a semiconductor wafer (W) typically on a dicing tape (T1). The diced semiconductor wafer (10) on the dicing tape (T1) is laminated with a sinter-bonding sheet (20). The semiconductor chips (11) each with a sinter-bonding material layer (21) derived from the sinter-bonding sheet (20) are picked up typically from the dicing tape (T1). The semiconductor chips (11) each with the sinter-bonding material layer are temporarily secured through the sinter-bonding material layer (21) to a substrate. Through a heating process, sintered layers are formed from the sinter-bonding material layers (21) lying between the temporarily secured semiconductor chips (11) and the substrate, to bond the semiconductor chips (11) to the substrate. The semiconductor device manufacturing method is suitable for efficiently supplying a sinter-bonding material to individual semiconductor chips while reducing loss of the sinter-bonding material.
