| 20100244055 | SEMICONDUCTOR-BASED SUB-MOUNTS FOR OPTOELECTRONIC DEVICES WITH CONDUCTIVE PATHS TO FACILITATE TESTING AND BINNING - The disclosure facilitates testing and binning of multiple LED chip or other optoelectronic chip packages fabricated on a single semiconductor wafer. The testing can take place prior to dicing. For example, in one aspect, metallization on the front-side of a semiconductor wafer electrically connects together cathode pads (or anode pads) of adjacent sub-mounts such that the cathode pads (or anode pads) in a given column of sub-mounts are electrically connected together. Likewise, metallization on the back-side of the wafer electrically connects together anode pads (or cathode pads) of adjacent sub-mounts such that the anode pads (or cathode pads) in a given row of sub-mounts are electrically connected together. Probe pads, which can be located one or both sides of the wafer, are electrically connected to respective ones of the rows or columns. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100200888 | Silicon-Based Sub-Mount for an Opto-Electronic Device - A package for an optoelectronic device (e.g., a light emitting device such as a LED) includes a sub-mount including a silicon substrate having a thickness in the range of 350 μm-700 μm. The optoelectronic device is mounted on a die attach pad on the front-side surface of the substrate. Feed-through metallization in one or more via structures electrically couples the die attach pad to a contact pad on the back-side surface of the substrate. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20100176507 | SEMICONDUCTOR-BASED SUBMOUNT WITH ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE FEED-THROUGHS - A submount for a micro-component includes a semiconductor substrate having a cavity defined in a front-side of the substrate in which to mount the micro-component. The submount also includes a thin silicon membrane portion at a bottom of the cavity and thicker frame portions adjacent to sidewalls of the cavity. The substrate includes an electrically conductive feed-through connection extending from a back-side of the substrate at least partially through the thicker silicon frame portion. Electrical contact between the feed-through connection and a conductive layer on a surface of the cavity is made at least partially through a sidewall of the cavity. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20100015734 | Formation of Through-Wafer Electrical Interconnections and Other Structures Using a Thin Dielectric Membrane - Providing through-wafer interconnections in a semiconductor wafer includes forming a sacrificial membrane in a preexisting semiconductor wafer, depositing metallization over one side of the wafer so as to cover exposed portions of the sacrificial membrane facing the one side of the wafer, removing exposed portions of the sacrificial membrane facing the other side of the wafer, and depositing metallization over the other side of the wafer so as to contact the previously deposited metallization. Techniques also are disclosed for providing capacitive and other structures using thin metal membranes. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20090321760 | FABRICATION OF COMPACT OPTO-ELECTRONIC COMPONENT PACKAGES - A wafer-level method of fabricating an opto-electronic component package, in which the opto-electronic component is mounted to a semiconductor wafer having first and second surfaces on opposite sides of the wafer. The method includes etching vias in the first surface of the semiconductor wafer. The first surface and surfaces in the vias are metallized, and the metal is structured to define a thermal pad and to define the anode and cathode contact pads. A carrier wafer is attached on the side of the semiconductor wafer having the first surface, and the semiconductor wafer is thinned from its second surface to expose the metallization in the vias. Metal is provided on the second surface, and the metal is structured to define a die attach pad and additional anode and cathode pads for the opto-electronic component. The opto-electronic component is mounted on the die attach pad and a protective cover is formed over the opto-electronic component. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20090194777 | OPTOELECTRONIC DEVICE SUBMOUNT - A submount for an optoelectronic device includes a substrate, a first top pad on a top surface of the substrate, a first bottom pad on a bottom surface of the substrate and a first wrap-around contact in a sidewall recess of the substrate, in which the first wrap-around contact is coupled electrically to the first top pad and to the first bottom pad. Alternatively, or in addition, the submount includes a device mounting pad on the top surface of the substrate, a wire-bond pad on the top surface of the substrate, a contact pad on the bottom surface of the substrate and a feedthrough contact which extends through the substrate and electrically couples the wire-bond pad to the contact pad. | 08-06-2009 |
| 20090191704 | Formation of Through-Wafer Electrical Interconnections and Other Structures Using a Thin Dielectric Membrane - Providing through-wafer interconnections in a semiconductor wafer includes forming a sacrificial membrane in a pre-existing semiconductor wafer, depositing metallization over one side of the wafer so as to cover exposed portions of the sacrificial membrane facing the one side of the wafer, removing exposed portions of the sacrificial membrane facing the other side of the wafer, and depositing metallization over the other side of the wafer so as to contact the previously deposited metallization. Techniques also are disclosed for providing capacitive and other structures using thin metal membranes. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20090101897 | PACKAGE FOR A LIGHT EMITTING ELEMENT - A high-brightness LED module includes a substrate with a recess in which a light emitting element is mounted. The recess is defined by a sidewalls and a relatively thin membrane. At least two micro-vias are provided in the membrane and include conductive material that passes through the membrane. A p-contact of the light emitting element is coupled to a first micro-via and an n-contact of the light emitting element is coupled to a second micro-via. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20080199982 | Fabrication Process for Package With Light Emitting Device On A Sub-Mount - A method of fabricating a package with a light emitting device includes depositing a first metallization to form a conductive pad on which the light emitting device is to be mounted and to form one or more feed-through interconnections extending through a semiconductor material that supports the conductive pad. Subsequently, a second metallization is deposited to form a reflective surface for reflecting light, emitted by the light emitting device, through a lid of the package. Deposition of the second metallization is de-coupled from deposition of the first metallization. | 08-21-2008 |
