An optical sensor and filter assembly is provided and includes an optical sensor, a filter and a mounting structure. The optical sensor includes a detector layer having first and second opposed faces and a read-out integrated circuit (ROIC) to which the first face of the detector layer is hybridized. The filter permits passage of one or more wavelength bands of interest of incident light toward the optical sensor and the mounting structure directly hybridizes the filter to the second face of the detector layer.

A semiconductor device 10 includes a pair of electrodes 16 and a conductive connection member 21 electrically bonded to the pair of electrodes 16. At least a portion of a perimeter of a bonding surface 24 of at least one of the pair of electrodes 16 and the conductive connection member 21 includes an electromigration reducing area 22.

A Cu.sub.3Sn electrical interconnect and method of making same in an electrical device, such as for hybrid bond 3D-integration of the electrical device with one or more other electrical devices. The method of forming the Cu.sub.3Sn electrical interconnect includes: depositing a Sn layer in the via hole; depositing a Cu layer atop and in contact with the Sn layer; and heating the Sn layer and the Cu layer such that the Sn and Cu layers diffuse together to form a Cu.sub.3Sn interconnect in the via hole. During the heating, a diffusion front between the Sn and Cu layers moves in a direction toward the Cu layer as initially deposited, such that any remaining Cu layer or any voids formed during the diffusion are at an upper region of the formed Cu.sub.3Sn interconnect in the via hole, thereby allowing such voids or remaining material to be easily removed.
