Metal-to-metal adhesion joints are described as a manner to hold down micro devices to a carrier substrate within the context of a micro device transfer manufacturing process. In accordance with embodiments, the metal-to-metal adhesion joints must be broken in order to pick up the micro devices from a carrier substrate, resulting in micro devices with nubs protruding from bottom contacts of the micro devices. Once integrated, the micro devices are bonded to a receiving substrate, the nubs may be embedded in a metallic joint, or alternatively be diffused within the metallic joint as interstitial metallic material that is embedded within the metallic joint.

A chip packaging structure comprises a die, a carrier, a die attach film, and a plastic package body. The die attach film is disposed on the bottom surface of the die, with a thickness of the die attach film being greater than or equal to 40 micrometers. The die is disposed on the carrier via the die attach film; and the plastic package body is disposed on the carrier and coats a top surface and side surfaces of the die, whereby the overall impact resistance of a chip is improved without changing the structure of the carrier, the expense for making a mold is saved, and moreover, the packaging structure is simple and easy for mass production.

A method of forming a bonding assembly that includes positioning a plurality of polymer spheres against an opal structure and placing a substrate against a second major surface of the opal structure. The opal structure includes the first major surface and the second major surface with a plurality of voids defined therebetween. The plurality of polymer spheres encapsulates a solder material disposed therein and contacts the first major surface of the opal structure. The method includes depositing a material within the voids of the opal structure and removing the opal structure to form an inverse opal structure between the first and second major surfaces. The method further includes removing the plurality of polymer spheres to expose the solder material encapsulated therein and placing a semiconductor device onto the inverse opal structure in contact with the solder material.
