  • Patent number: 9892994
    Abstract: An integrated circuit chip attachment in a microstructure device is accomplished through the use of an adhesive-based material in which graphene flakes are incorporated. This results in superior thermal conductivity. The spatial orientation of the graphene flakes is controlled, for example by adhering polar molecules to the graphene flakes and exposing the flakes to an external force field, so that the graphene flakes have desired orientations under the integrated circuit chip, alongside of the integrated circuit chip and above the integrated circuit chip.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 19, 2015
    Date of Patent: February 13, 2018

  • Publication number: 20160099200
    Abstract: Described herein is a semiconductor device provided with: a die of semiconductor material; a lead frame, defining a support plate, which is designed to carry the die, and leads, which are designed to be electrically coupled to the die; and a package, of encapsulating material, which is designed to encapsulate the die and partially coming out of which are the leads. The lead frame has as constituent material an aluminum alloy comprising a percentage of silicon ranging between 1% and 1.5%.

  • Patent number: 4971930
    Abstract: An EPROM device erasable with ultraviolet rays is made with a container of plastic material opaque to ultraviolet rays having a window overlying the semiconductor chip. Plastic material transparent to ultraviolet rays fills the interior space of the container over said chip. The container is formed by moulding of the mass of transparent plastic material previously formed on the semiconductor chip, or a container formed preliminarily is filled with a semiconductor chip and then with a mass of transparent plastic material and finally closed with a transparent lens which fixes the thickness of the transparent mass, distributing it uniformly in the interior space of the container.
