  • Publication number: 20240128216
    Abstract: A bonding structure that may be used to form 3D-IC devices is formed using first oblong bonding pads on a first substrate and second oblong bonding pads one a second substrate. The first and second oblong bonding pads are laid crosswise, and the bond is formed. Viewed in a first cross-section, the first bonding pad is wider than the second bonding pad. Viewed in a second cross-section at a right angle to the first, the second bonding pad is wider than the first bonding pad. Making the bonding pads oblong and angling them relative to one another reduces variations in bonding area due to shifts in alignment between the first substrate and the second substrate. The oblong shape in a suitable orientation may also be used to reduce capacitive coupling between one of the bonding pads and nearby wires.

  • Patent number: 6428659
    Abstract: A process for coating super fine ion particles of multiple elements on the surface of a micro route substrate includes a coating step operated under low temperatures and vacuums. First, raw micro routers are cleaned by electron beams under atmospheric pressures and room temperatures, then the raw micro routers are transferred into a vacuum environment, and the temperature of the environment is increased to a range between 120° C. to 180° C. Next, the surface of the micro route is cleaned by ions, and then a coating process is started. An arc source is used to bombard cations from a target while a filtration net is used to pass small cation particles. An ion assistant device is operated to further refine the filtered particles so that only super fine ion particles are coated on the surface of the micro route substrates.
