  • Patent number: 10804179
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a packaging process to enhance thermal and electrical performance of a wafer-level package. The wafer-level package with enhanced performance includes a first thinned die having a first device layer, a multilayer redistribution structure, a first mold compound, and a second mold compound. The multilayer redistribution structure includes package contacts on a bottom surface of the multilayer redistribution structure and redistribution interconnects connecting the first device layer to the package contacts. The first mold compound resides over the multilayer redistribution structure and around the first thinned die, and extends beyond a top surface of the first thinned die to define a cavity within the first mold compound and over the first thinned die. The second mold compound fills the cavity and is in contact with the top surface of the first thinned die.

  • Patent number: 10759660
    Abstract: A method for processing product wafers using carrier substrates is disclosed. The method includes a step of bonding a first carrier wafer to a first product wafer using a first temporary adhesion layer between a first carrier wafer surface and a first product wafer first surface. Another step includes bonding a second carrier wafer to a second product wafer using a second temporary adhesion layer between a second carrier wafer surface and a second product wafer surface. Another step includes bonding the first product wafer to the second product wafer using a permanent bond between a first product wafer second surface and a second product wafer first surface. In exemplary embodiments, at least one processing step is performed on the first product wafer after the first temporary carrier wafer is bonded to the first product wafer before the second product wafer is permanently bonded to the first product wafer.

The wafer-level package with enhanced performance includes a first thinned die having a first device layer, a multilayer redistribution structure, a first mold compound, and a second mold compound. The multilayer redistribution structure includes package contacts on a bottom surface of the multilayer redistribution structure and redistribution interconnects connecting the first device layer to the package contacts. The first mold compound resides over the multilayer redistribution structure and around the first thinned die, and extends beyond a top surface of the first thinned die to define a cavity within the first mold compound and over the first thinned die. The second mold compound fills the cavity and is in contact with the top surface of the first thinned die.

  • Patent number: 10486965
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a wafer-level package that includes a first thinned die, a multilayer redistribution structure, a first mold compound, and a second mold compound. The first thinned die includes a first device layer formed from glass materials. The multilayer redistribution structure includes redistribution interconnects that connect the first device layer to package contacts on a bottom surface of the multilayer redistribution structure. Herein, the connections between the redistribution interconnects and the first device layer are solder-free. The first mold compound resides over the multilayer redistribution structure and around the first thinned die, and extends beyond a top surface of the first thinned die to define an opening within the first mold compound and over the first thinned die. The second mold compound fills the opening and is in contact with the top surface of the first thinned die.
