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: A bonded assembly includes an interposer; a semiconductor die that is attached to the interposer and including a planar horizontal bottom surface and a contoured sidewall; a high bandwidth memory (HBM) die that is attached to the interposer; and a dielectric material portion contacting the semiconductor die and the interposer. The contoured sidewall includes a vertical sidewall segment and a non-horizontal, non-vertical surface segment that is adjoined to a bottom edge of the vertical sidewall segment and is adjoined to an edge of the planar horizontal bottom surface of the semiconductor die. The vertical sidewall segment and the non-horizontal, non-vertical surface segment are in contact with the dielectric material portion. The contoured sidewall may provide a variable lateral spacing from the HBM die to reduce local stress in a portion of the HBM die that is proximal to the interposer.
