  • Publication number: 20240096757
    Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) die includes first through third adjacent rows of through-silicon vias (TSVs), and first and second adjacent rows of memory macros. TSVs of the first row of TSVs extend through and are electrically isolated from memory macros of the first row of memory macros. TSVs of the third row of TSVs extend through and are electrically isolated from memory macros of the second row of memory macros.

  • Publication number: 20240076797
    Abstract: A susceptor assembly for supporting a crucible during a crystal growth process includes a susceptor base, a tubular sidewall connected to the susceptor base, and a removable sacrifice ring interposed between the susceptor base and the sidewall. Each of the susceptor base and the sidewall is formed of a carbon-containing material. The susceptor base has an annular wall and a shoulder extending radially outward from an outer surface of the annular wall. The sidewall has a first end that receives the annular wall to connect the sidewall to the susceptor base. The sacrifice ring has a first surface that faces the outer surface of the annular wall, a second surface that faces an interior surface of the sidewall, and a ledge extending outward from the second surface that engages the first end of the sidewall.

  • Publication number: 20230272552
    Abstract: Ingot puller apparatus that include a silicon feed tube for adding solid silicon to a crucible assembly are disclosed. The silicon feed tubes include a conduit portion having an inner diameter and a kick plate disposed below the conduit portion. The kick plate extends across at least 60% of the inner diameter of the conduit portion.

  • Publication number: 20220403549
    Abstract: Methods for determining suitability of Czochralski growth conditions to produce silicon substrates for epitaxy. The methods involve evaluating substrates sliced from ingots grown under different growth conditions (e.g., impurity profiles) by imaging the wafer by infrared depolarization. An infrared depolarization parameter is generated for each epitaxial wafer. The parameters may be compared to determine which growth conditions are well-suited to produce substrates for epitaxial and/or post-epi heat treatments.
