    Abstract: Reusable composite stencils for spray processes, particularly for spray processes used in the fabrication of integrated circuit devices, may be fabricated having a permanent core and at least one sacrificial material layer. Thus, in operation, when a predetermined amount of the sacrificial material layer has been ablated away by a material being sprayed in the spray process, the remaining sacrificial material layer may be removed and reapplied to its original thickness. Therefore, the permanent core, which is usually expensive and/or difficult to fabricate, may be repeatedly reused.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit assembly may be fabricated to include an integrated circuit device having a backside surface and a backside metallization layer on the backside surface of the integrated circuit device, wherein the backside metallization layer comprises a bond layer on the backside surface of the integrated circuit device, a high thermal conductivity layer on the bond layer, and a cap layer on the high thermal conductivity layer. The bond layer may be a layered stack comprising an adhesion promotion layer on the backside of the integrated circuit device and at one least metal layer. The high thermal conductivity layer may be an additively deposited material having a thermal conductivity greater than silicon, such as copper, silver, aluminum, diamond, silicon carbide, boron nitride, aluminum nitride, and combinations thereof.

    Abstract: Cold-spray nozzles, systems, and techniques are described herein related to manufacturing implementations of efficient film deposition. A deposition system includes multiple feed systems to deliver solid powder materials at controlled feed rates and temperatures, and a nozzle, including convergent and divergent sections and connections to the feed systems, to receive a carrier fluid in the convergent section and to spray the carrier fluid and the solid powder materials out of the divergent section. A nozzle includes multiple ports to receive solid powder materials for admission into a carrier fluid, with one or more ports in the convergent section and one or more ports in the divergent section. A method may include delivering a carrier fluid to a nozzle, heating multiple solid powder materials, delivering these solid powder materials to the nozzle, and spraying the solid powder materials out of a divergent section of the nozzle.

    Abstract: A contiguous integrated heat spreader suitable for an integrated circuit (IC) die package. Heat spreader material may be deposited with a high throughput additive manufacturing (HTAM) technique directly upon a surface of an IC die, and over a portion of a package substrate beyond an edge of the IC die. The contiguous heat spreader may have high thermal conductivity and offer low thermal resistance in absence of any intervening thermal interface material (TIM). The contiguous heat spreader may span multiple IC die and accommodate different die heights. The heat spreader may be contiguous with multiple die. Heat spreader material may be absent where thermal breaks within the heat spreader are advantageous.
