  • Patent number: 11942344
    Abstract: In a method of determining a critical temperature of a semiconductor package, heat is applied to at least one semiconductor package. Temperatures of the semiconductor package are measured during the heating. Heights of the semiconductor package are also measured during the heating. A temperature of the semiconductor package measured at a point at which a height from among the measured heights of the semiconductor package is sharply increased so that swelling of the semiconductor package occurs is determined as the critical temperature of the semiconductor package. Thus, the critical temperature of the semiconductor package may be accurately determined.

  • Publication number: 20230178280
    Abstract: A die alignment method includes vertically aligning a first die comprising first magnetic patterns and a second die comprising second magnetic patterns with each other using magnetic force between the first magnetic patterns and the second magnetic patterns. Each of the first magnetic patterns and the second magnetic patterns comprises a horizontally magnetically anisotropic material. The first magnetic patterns and the second magnetic patterns do not vertically overlap each other when the first die and the second die are vertically aligned with each other.

  • Patent number: 11581202
    Abstract: A substrate debonding apparatus configured to separate a support substrate attached to a first surface of a device substrate by an adhesive layer, the substrate debonding apparatus including a substrate chuck configured to support a second surface of the device substrate, the second surface being opposite to the first surface of the device substrate; a light irradiator configured to irradiate light to an inside of the adhesive layer; and a mask between the substrate chuck and the light irradiator, the mask including an opening through which an upper portion of the support substrate is exposed, and a first cooling passage or a second cooling passage, the first cooling passage being configured to provide a path in which a coolant is flowable, the second cooling passage being configured to provide a path in which air is flowable and to provide part of the air to a central portion of the opening.
