Patent number: 11562971Abstract: In various embodiments, disclosed herein are systems and methods directed to the fabrication of a coreless semiconductor package (e.g., a millimeter (mm)-wave antenna package) having an asymmetric build-up layer count that can be fabricated on both sides of a temporary substrate (e.g., a core). The asymmetric build-up layer count can reduce the overall layer count in the fabrication of the semiconductor package and can therefore contribute to fabrication cost reduction. In further embodiments, the semiconductor package (e.g., a millimeter (mm)-wave antenna packages) can further comprise dummification elements disposed near one or more antenna layers. Further, the dummification elements disposed near one or more antenna layers can reduce image current and thereby increasing the antenna gain and efficiency.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2020Date of Patent: January 24, 2023Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Telesphor Kamgaing, Adel A.

Patent number: 11495607Abstract: Curing of a passivation layer applied to the surface of a ferroelectric integrated circuit so as to enhance the polarization characteristics of the ferroelectric structures. A passivation layer, such as a polyimide, is applied to the surface of the ferroelectric integrated circuit after fabrication of the active devices.
