Abstract:
A method for backside metallization and reinforcement of glass substrates to provide support and protection during handling and processing of the glass substrates. Through-holes are created in a glass substrate and filled with a conductive type material. Backside metallized pads are applied to the glass substrate and enclosed with an under-bump metallization (UBM) pad. A sacrificial substrate is removeably attached to the glass substrate. The sacrificial substrate comprises a sacrificial layer, an opaque film, and an adhesive. The sacrificial substrate protects the backside metallized pads and under-bump metallization (UBM) pads, and reinforces the glass substrate.
