A bond tip for thermocompression bonding a bottom surface includes a die contact area and a low surface energy material covering at least a portion of the bottom surface. The low surface energy material may cover substantially all of the bottom surface, or only a peripheral portion surrounding the die contact area. The die contact area may be recessed with respect to the peripheral portion a depth at least as great as a thickness of a semiconductor die to be received in the recessed die contact area. A method of thermocompression bonding is also disclosed.

A semiconductor chip stack includes first and second semiconductor chips. The first chip includes a first semiconductor substrate having an active surface and an inactive surface, a first insulating layer formed on the inactive surface, and first pads formed in the first insulating layer. The second semiconductor chip includes a second semiconductor substrate having an active surface and an inactive surface, a second insulating layer formed on the active surface, second pads formed in the second insulating layer, a polymer layer formed on the second insulating layer, UBM patterns buried in the polymer layer; and buried solders formed on the UBM patterns, respectively, and buried in the polymer layer. A lower surface of the buried solders is coplanar with that of the polymer layer, the buried solders contact the first pads, respectively, at a contact surface, and a cross-sectional area of the buried solders is greatest on the contact surface.

The invention is directed towards enhanced systems and methods for employing a pulsed photon (or EM energy) source, such as but not limited to a laser, to electrically couple, bond, and/or affix the electrical contacts of a semiconductor device to the electrical contacts of another semiconductor devices. Full or partial rows of LEDs are electrically coupled, bonded, and/or affixed to a backplane of a display device. The LEDs may be μLEDs. The pulsed photon source is employed to irradiate the LEDs with scanning photon pulses. The EM radiation is absorbed by either the surfaces, bulk, substrate, the electrical contacts of the LED, and/or electrical contacts of the backplane to generate thermal energy that induces the bonding between the electrical contacts of the LEDs' electrical contacts and backplane's electrical contacts. The temporal and spatial profiles of the photon pulses, as well as a pulsing frequency and a scanning frequency of the photon source, are selected to control for adverse thermal effects.
