The present disclosure relates to a flip-chip based moisture-resistant module, which includes a substrate with a top surface, a flip-chip die, a sheet-mold film, and a barrier layer. The flip-chip die has a die body and a number of interconnects, each of which extends outward from a bottom surface of the die body and is attached to the top surface of the substrate. The sheet-mold film directly encapsulates sides of the die body, extends towards the top surface of the substrate, and directly adheres to the top surface of the substrate, such that an air-cavity with a perimeter defined by the sheet-mold film is formed between the bottom surface of the die body and the top surface of the substrate. The barrier layer is formed directly over the sheet-mold film, fully covers the sides of the die body, and extends horizontally beyond the flip-chip die.

A semiconductor device and a method of forming a semiconductor device are provided. The semiconductor device includes a first die, a diamond layer and an encapsulant. The diamond layer is disposed on the first die. The encapsulant is disposed on the first die, wherein the encapsulant encapsulates the diamond layer.

A semiconductor structure includes a first dielectric layer over a metal line and a redistribution layer (RDL) over the first dielectric layer. The RDL is electrically connected to the metal line. The RDL has a curved top surface and a footing feature, where the footing feature extends laterally from a side surface of the RDL. A second dielectric layer is disposed over the RDL, where the second dielectric layer also has a curved top surface.

Microelectronic die package structures formed according to some embodiments may include a substrate and a die having a first side and a second side. The first side of the die is coupled to the substrate, and a die backside layer is on the second side of the die. The die backside layer includes a plurality of unfilled grooves in the die backside layer. Each of the unfilled grooves has an opening at a surface of the die backside layer, opposite the second side of the die, and extends at least partially through the die backside layer.

A semiconductor package includes a substrate including a first layer, a plurality of structures extending in a first direction on the first layer by a first length and including the same materials as the first layer, and a first semiconductor chip bonded to the substrate, wherein a separation distance in the first direction between a first surface of the first semiconductor chip facing the substrate and the substrate is determined by the first length.
