The present invention comprises a semiconductor package comprising a bottom semiconductor package substrate which is populated with one or more electronic components. The electronic component(s) of the bottom substrate are covered or encapsulated with a suitable mold compound which hardens into a package body of the semiconductor package. The package body is provided with one or more vias through the completion of laser drilling process, such via(s) providing access to one or more corresponding conductive contacts of the bottom substrate. These vias are either lined or partially filled with a conductive metal material. Subsequently, a top semiconductor package substrate (which may optionally be populated with one or more electronic components) is mounted to the package body and electrically connected to the conductive metal within the via(s) of the package body.

Chip stacks with decreased conductor length and improved noise immunity are formed by laser drilling of individual chips, such as memory chips, preferably near but within the periphery thereof, and forming conductors therethrough, preferably by metallization or filling with conductive paste which may be stabilized by transient liquid phase (TLP) processes and preferably with or during metallization of conductive pads, possibly including connector patterns on both sides of at least some of the chips in the stack. At least some of the chips in the stack then have electrical and mechanical connections made therebetween, preferably with electroplated solder preforms consistent with TLP processes. The connections may be contained by a layer of resilient material surrounding the connections and which may be formed in-situ. High density circuit packages thus obtained may be mounted on a carrier by surface mount techniques or separable connectors such as a plug and socket arrangement. The carrier may be of the same material as the chip stacks to match coefficients of thermal expansion. High-density circuit packages may also be in the form of removable memory modules in generally planar or prism shaped form similar to a pen or as a thermal conduction module.

Methods, for use with a laser ablation or drilling process, which achieve depth-controlled removal of composite-layered work-piece material by real-time feedback of ablation plasma spectral features. The methods employ the use of electric, magnetic or combined fields in the region of the laser ablation plume to direct the ablated material. Specifically, the electric, magnetic or combined fields cause the ablated material to be widely dispersed, concentrated in a target region, or accelerated along a selected axis for optical or physical sampling, analysis and laser feedback control. The methods may be used with any laser drilling, welding or marking process and are particularly applicable to laser micro-machining. The described methods may be effectively used with ferrous and non-ferrous metals and non-metallic work-pieces. The two primary benefits of these methods are the ability to drill or ablate to a controlled depth, and to provide controlled removal of ablation debris from the ablation site. An ancillary benefit of the described methods is that they facilitate ablated materials analysis and characterization by optical and/or mass spectroscopy.

An electronic assembly is assembled by stacking two or more integrated circuit dies on top of one another. Prior to singulation, an opening is laser-drilled into an upper die, and subsequently filled with a conductive member. The conductive member is located on a lower die and interconnects integrated circuits of the upper and lower dies. Laser-drilling allows for faster throughput when compared to, for example, etching, especially if a small number of openings has to be formed. The opening is laser-drilled from an upper surface of the upper die all the way through the die, which allows for the use of alignment marks on an upper surface of the upper die.

A differential diameter hole drilling method by which through-holes having improved major surface quality are formed in a target material involves drilling a pilot hole having a diameter that is less than the desired diameter of the through-hole and then drilling a through-hole having the desired diameter. The pilot hole forms a channel from which thermal energy produced during laser drilling can diffuse into the environment, thereby reducing the amount of thermal energy diffusing into the surrounding target material matrix and the degree of thermal damage to the heat affected zone of the target material matrix. The pilot hole also forms a channel through which ablated target material may be removed, thereby increasing overall through-hole throughput. Pilot hole formation reduces the thermal energy required to form the remaining portion of the through-hole and thereby results in less thermal damage to the surrounding target material matrix.

A method of and an apparatus for drilling blind vias with selectable tapers in multilayer electronic circuits permit forming electrical connections between layers while maintaining quality and throughput. The method relies on recognizing that the top diameter of the via and the bottom diameter of the via, which define the taper, are functions of two separate sets of equations. Simultaneous solution of these equations yields a solution space that enables optimization of throughput while maintaining selected taper and quality using temporally unmodified Q-switched CO₂ laser pulses with identical pulse parameters. Real time pulse tailoring is not required; therefore, system complexity and cost may be reduced.
