  • 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.

    Abstract: Disclosed are an image display method and a 3d display system. The method is adapted to the 3d display system including a 3d display device and includes the following steps. A first image and a second image are obtained by splitting an input image according to a 3d image format. Whether the input image is a 3D format image complying with the 3D image format is determined through a stereo matching processing performed on the first image and the second image. An image interweaving process is enabled to be performed on the input image to generate an interweaving image in response to determining that the input image is the 3D format image complying with the 3D image format, and the interweaving image is displayed via the 3D display device.
