Abstract: A semiconductor die package includes an inductor-capacitor (LC) semiconductor die that is directly bonded with a logic semiconductor die. The LC semiconductor die includes inductors and capacitors that are integrated into a single die. The inductors and capacitors of the LC semiconductor die may be electrically connected with transistors and other logic components on the logic semiconductor die to form a voltage regulator circuit of the semiconductor die package. The integration of passive components (e.g., the inductors and capacitors) of the voltage regulator circuit into a single semiconductor die reduces signal propagation distances in the voltage regulator circuit, which may increase the operating efficiency of the voltage regulator circuit, may reduce the formfactor for the semiconductor die package, may reduce parasitic capacitance and/or may reduce parasitic inductance in the voltage regulator circuit (thereby improving the performance of the voltage regulator circuit), among other examples.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for fabricating polymeric wavelength filter based on an asymmetric Bragg coupler with single-grating waveguide. The asymmetric waveguide coupler is formed firstly on a negative photo-resist mold. PDMS film is injected into the narrow waveguide of the coupler to act as a protection layer. The gratings pattern is exposed on the alternative waveguide and subsequently transferred to PDMS stamp mold. The PDMS stamp mold is used as a stamp to transfer the gratings pattern of the ABC wavelength filter onto UV cured polymer to form the final ABC filter. Whereby, the fabrication process is reliable and accurate, and can offer great potential for mass production of the ABC filter with single-grating waveguide.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for fabricating polymeric wavelength filter, which method for forming gratings patterns on the UV polymer involves three processing steps. First, a gratings pattern is holographically exposed using a two-beam interference pattern on a positive photo-resister film. A 20-nm-thick nickel thin film is then sputtered onto the positive photo-resister film to form a nickel mold. This nickel mold on the photo-resister film then can be subsequently used to transfer the final gratings pattern onto a UV cure epoxy polymer. Whereby, a polymer film can be spun coated on the cure epoxy substrate so as to simplify the fabrication process for obtaining a polymer wavelength filter with good aspect ratio of gratings pattern.
