Abstract: A device includes a first package connected to an interconnect substrate, wherein the interconnect substrate includes conductive routing; and a second package connected to the interconnect substrate, wherein the second package includes a photonic layer on a substrate, the photonic layer including a silicon waveguide coupled to a grating coupler and to a photodetector; a via extending through the substrate; an interconnect structure over the photonic layer, wherein the interconnect structure is connected to the photodetector and to the via; and an electronic die bonded to the interconnect structure, wherein the electronic die is connected to the interconnect structure.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a first substrate, an electronic component, and a lid. The first substrate includes a first substrate top side, a first substrate bottom side opposite to the first substrate top side, a first substrate lateral side interposed between the first substrate top side and the first substrate bottom side, and a connector structure. The electronic component is coupled to the first substrate top side and coupled to the connector structure. The lid includes a wall part including a ring part coupled to the first substrate top side, a first part of an overhang part coupled to the first substrate lateral side, and a second part of the overhang part extending from the first part of the overhang part away from the first substrate lateral side.

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.
