Abstract: An apparatus and method is provided for coating a surface of a material with a film of porous coordination polymer. A first substrate having a first surface to be coated is positioned in a processing chamber such that the first surface is placed in a substantially opposing relationship to a second surface. In some embodiments, the second surface is provided by a wall of the processing chamber, and in other embodiments the second surface is provided by a second substrate to be coated. The first substrate is held such that a gap exists between the first and second surfaces, and the gap is filled with at least one reaction mixture comprising reagents sufficient to form the crystalline film on at least the first surface. A thin gap (e.g., having a thickness less than 2 mm) between the first and second surfaces is effective for producing a high quality film having a thickness less than 100 ?m.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to die adhesive films for integrated circuit (IC) packaging, as well as methods for forming and removing die adhesive films and package assemblies and systems incorporating such die adhesive films. A die adhesive film may be transparent to a first wavelength of light and photoreactive to a second wavelength of light. In some embodiments, the die adhesive film may be applied to a back or “inactive” side of a die, and the die surface may be detectable through the die adhesive film. The die adhesive film may be cured and/or marked with laser energy having the second wavelength of light. The die adhesive film may include a thermochromic dye and/or nanoparticles configured to provide laser mark contrast. UV laser energy may be used to remove the die adhesive film in order to expose underlying features such as TSV pads.
