Patent attributes
Interposers for use in the fabrication of electronic devices include semiconductor-on-insulator structures having fluidic microchannels therein. The interposers may include a multi-layer body in which a semiconductor material is bonded to a substrate with a layer of dielectric material between the semiconductor material and the substrate. At least one fluidic microchannel may extend in a lateral direction through at least one of the layer of dielectric material and the semiconductor material. The interposers may include redistribution layers and electrical contacts on opposing sides thereof. Semiconductor structures include one or more semiconductor devices coupled with such interposers. Such interposers and semiconductor structures may be formed by fabricating a semiconductor-on-insulator type structure using a direct bonding method and defining one or more fluidic microchannels at a bonding interface during the direct bonding process.
