  • Patent number: 11973040
    Abstract: A method is provided for forming an integrated circuit (IC) chip package structure. The method includes providing a substrate for an interposer, and forming a conductive interconnect structure in and on the substrate for connecting a group of selected IC dies. The method includes forming warpage-reducing trenches in non-routing regions of the interposer, wherein the warpage-reducing trenches are sized and positioned based on a warpage characteristic to reduce the warpage of the chip package structure. The method also includes depositing a warpage-relief material in the warpage-reducing trenches according to the warpage characteristic to reduce the warpage of the chip package structure, and bonding the group of selected IC dies to the interposer to form a chip package structure.

  • Publication number: 20080157070
    Abstract: An organic semiconductor element having multi protection layers and process of making the same are provided. Firstly, forming a first protection layer on the thin film transistor. Next, forming a second protection layer which is thick enough to serve as the photo spacers on said first protection layer. The multi protection layers are then grown on said organic thin film transistor, so as to enable the second protection layer to have the additional function of the photo spacers by the patterning process. Thus the organic thin film transistor can be prevented from being damaged, and achieving the simplification of the manufacturing process and the reduction of the production cost.
