Substrates that are bonding targets are bonded in ambient atmosphere via bonding films, including oxides, formed on bonding faces of the substrates. The bonding films, which are metal or semiconductor thin films formed by vacuum film deposition and at least the surfaces of which are oxidized, are formed into the respective smooth faces of two substrates having the smooth faces that serve as the bonding faces. The bonding films are exposed to a space that contains moisture, and the two substrates are overlapped in the ambient atmosphere such that the surfaces of the bonding films are made to be hydrophilic and the surfaces of the bonding films contact one another. Through this, a chemical bond is generated at the bonded interface, and thereby the two substrates are bonded together in the ambient atmosphere. The bonding strength γ can be improved by heating the bonded substrates at a temperature.

The present disclosure is directed to a wafer level chip scale package (WLCSP) with various combinations of contacts and Under Bump Metallizations (UBMs) having different structures and different amounts solder coupled to the contacts and UBMs. Although the contacts have different structures and the volume of solder differs, the total standoff height along the WLCSP remains substantially the same. Each portion of solder coupled to each respective contact and UBM includes a point furthest away from an active surface of a die of the WLCSP. Each point of each respective portion of solder is co-planar with each other respective point of the other respective portions of solder. Additionally, the contacts with various and different structures are positioned accordingly on the active surface of the die of the WLCSP.

An electronic device comprises a semiconductor die, a layer stack disposed on the semiconductor die and comprising one or more functional layers, wherein the layer stack comprises a protection layer which is an outermost functional layer of the layer stack, and a sacrificial layer disposed on the protection layer, wherein the sacrificial layer comprises a material which decomposes or becomes volatile at a temperature between 100° and 400° C.

An integrated memory assembly comprises a memory die and a control die bonded to the memory die. The memory die includes a memory structure of non-volatile memory cells. The control die is configured to program user data to and read user data from the memory die in response to commands from a memory controller. To utilize space more efficiently on the memory die, the control die compacts fragmented data on the memory die.

A semiconductor device has a first build-up interconnect structure formed over a substrate. The first build-up interconnect structure includes an insulating layer and conductive layer formed over the insulating layer. A vertical interconnect structure and semiconductor die are disposed over the first build-up interconnect structure. The semiconductor die, first build-up interconnect structure, and substrate are disposed over a carrier. An encapsulant is deposited over the semiconductor die, first build-up interconnect structure, and substrate. A second build-up interconnect structure is formed over the encapsulant. The second build-up interconnect structure electrically connects to the first build-up interconnect structure through the vertical interconnect structure. The substrate provides structural support and prevents warpage during formation of the first and second build-up interconnect structures. The substrate is removed after forming the second build-up interconnect structure. A portion of the insulating layer is removed exposing the conductive layer for electrical interconnect with subsequently stacked semiconductor devices.
