In the case of using the composition of carbon nitride as a protective film, for example, a material of an object to be coated (goods) is required to satisfy with a condition in disagreement with a temperature during forming the composition of carbon nitride. Besides, in the case of using the composition of carbon nitride as an insulating film in a semiconductor device, low stress relaxation and low coverage for a step are produced since the insulating film has a low hydrogen concentration. Consequently, a composition including carbon nitride according to the present invention is formed at a deposition temperature that enables to include hydrogen in the composition at 30 to 45 atomic %, for example, at temperatures of 100° C. or less, preferably 50° C. or less, more preferably from 20° C. to 30° C., with stability and adhesiveness kept.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2008Publication date: August 28, 2008Applicant: Semiconductor Energy Laboratory Co., Ltd.Inventor: Shinji Maekawa

Patent number: 7399657Abstract: Ball grid array packages for semiconductor die include a thermally conductive container and a substrate that substantially enclose a semiconductor die. The die is positioned with respect to the container by thermally conductive supports formed in the container or attached to the container. The die contacts the supports so that the die and the container form a cavity that is at least partially filled with a thermally conductive material such as a conductive epoxy to promote thermal conduction between the die and the container. The die electrically connects to the substrate with bond wires that extend through an aperture in the substrate and attach to bond pads provided on the substrate. The aperture is typically filled with a protective layer of resin, epoxy, or other material that also encapsulates the bond wires.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2002Date of Patent: July 15, 2008Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Todd O.
