Abstract: A substrate protrusion is described. The substrate protrusion includes a top portion that extends in a first direction toward a gap between the first die and the second die and in a second direction parallel to the gap between the first die and the second die. The substrate protrusion also includes a base portion that is coupled to a substrate that extends underneath the first die and the second die. An encapsulant is over the protrusion of the substrate, the encapsulant extending beneath the first die, and the encapsulant extending beneath the second die.

Abstract: A structure including a barrier is described. In embodiments, a micro-electronic component may have a first face and a second face, wherein the second face includes interconnect structures and is opposite the first face. A fill material, such as a capillary underfill material (CUF), may fill a gap between the micro-electronic component and the substrate and substantially surround the interconnect structures. In embodiments, a barrier structure may be located on the surface of the substrate and along a perimeter or outside perimeter of the micro-electronic component, wherein a height of the barrier structure exceeds a height of the fill material in at least a portion of an open region of the substrate to confine the fill material to an area bordered by the barrier structure.

Abstract: Methods of forming a microelectronic packaging structure and associated structures formed thereby are described. Those methods and structures may include modifying an underfill material with one of a thiol adhesion promoter, an azole coupling agent, surface modified filler, and peroxide based cross-linking polymer chemistries to greatly enhance adhesion in package structures utilizing the embodiments herein.

Abstract: Embodiments herein may relate to a patch on interposer (PoINT) architecture. In embodiments, the PoINT architecture may include a plurality of solder joints between a patch and an interposer. The solder joints may include a relatively high temperature solder ball and a relatively low temperature solder paste that at least partially surrounds the solder ball. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
