Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a through-substrate via extending from a frontside to a backside of a semiconductor substrate. The through-substrate via includes a concave or a convex portion adjacent to the backside of the semiconductor substrate. An isolation film is formed on the backside of the semiconductor substrate. A conductive layer includes a first portion formed on the concave or convex portion of the through substrate via and a second portion formed on the isolation film. A passivation layer partially covers the conductive layer.

Abstract: A blanket for transferring a paste image from an engraved plate to a substrate is provided. The blanket includes a foam; a supporting layer on the foam; and a paste transfer layer on the supporting layer. The paste transfer layer is an inter-penetrating polymer network of silicone rubber and fluoroelastomer.

Abstract: A packaging substrate and a semiconductor package using the packaging substrate are provided. The packaging substrate includes: a substrate body having a die attach area, a circuit layer formed around the die attach area and having a plurality of conductive traces each having a wire bonding pad, and a surface treatment layer formed on the wire bonding pads. Therein, only one of the conductive traces is connected to an electroplating line so as to prevent cross-talk that otherwise occurs between conductive traces due to too many electroplating lines in the prior art.

Abstract: A process for preparing 3-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-4(3H)-quinazolinone ammonium salts of the formula I: ##STR1## wherein: R is hydrogen, halogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkoxy,which process comprises:reacting ethyl N-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl) formimidate in an inert solvent with substituted anthranilamide of the formula IV ##STR2## wherein R is as defined above. The process is simpler than prior processes for preparing the same compounds and thus is economically valuable.
