The method includes: removing a portion of the substrate that is disposed below a portion of the transistor components, to thereby expose a portion of a bottom surface of the epitaxial layer; forming an electrically insulating layer on the exposed portion of the bottom surface of the epitaxial layer; forming a via that extends from a bottom surface of the insulating layer to a bottom surface of one of the transistor components; depositing at least one metal layer on the bottom surface of the insulating layer, on a side wall of the via and on the bottom surface of one of the transistor components; and applying a solder paste to a bottom surface of the at least one metal layer.

A power semiconductor device includes a substrate and a semiconductor element bonded onto a first surface of the substrate through use of a sintered metal bonding material. The substrate has a plurality of dimples formed in the first surface and located outside a location immediately below a heat generation unit of the semiconductor element. The sintered metal bonding material is supplied onto the substrate after the formation of the dimples, and the semiconductor element is bonded to the substrate through application of heat and a pressure thereto.

The drain field plate includes a metal pad that has a larger projection area than the drain pad. The drain field plate and semiconductor layer disposed beneath the drain field plate form a metal-semiconductor (M-S) Schottky structure. The capacitance of the M-S Schottky structure generates capacitance in the semiconductor area, which increases the breakdown voltage of the transistor components of the HEMT. A portion of the substrate under the active area may be removed to thereby increase the heat conductivity and reduce the junction temperature of the transistor components of the HEMT.

Methods and apparatus are described for heat management in an integrated circuit (IC) package using a lid with recessed areas in the inner surfaces of the lid. The recessed areas (e.g., trenches) provide receptacles for accepting a portion of a thermal interface material (TIM) that may be forced out when the lid is positioned on the TIM above one or more integrated circuit (IC) dies during fabrication of the IC package. In this manner, the TIM bond line thickness (BLT) between the lid and the IC die(s) may be reduced for decreased thermal resistance, but sufficient interfacial adhesion is provided for the IC package with such a lid to avoid TIM delamination.
