Interconnects play a critical role in virtually all microelectronic applications. They are key in influencing microsystem form factor, electrical performance, power consumption, and signal integrity. Of particular importance are first-level interconnects, which are used to electrically interconnect and mechanically bond a die to a package substrate. The density, electrical attributes, and mechanical properties of first-level interconnects impact the overall mechanical integrity, signaling bandwidth density, and power supply noise of microsystems. While solder bumps have become a key technology for first-level interconnects, the technology unfortunately leaves a number of attributes desired in modern microsystems. Compliant interconnects can circumvent many of the challenges in solder bumps as they can compensate for surface non-uniformity on the attaching substrate and CTE mismatch induced warpage and provide non-permanent contact. To this end, novel compliant interconnects for emerging electronic devices and new heterogeneous multi-die integration platform enabled by the compliant interconnects are explored.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"POLYLITHIC INTEGRATION OF HETEROGENEOUS MULTI-DIE ENABLED BY COMPLIANT MICROINTERCONNECTS"}],"uid":"28475","created_gmt":"2018-11-26 22:51:37","changed_gmt":"2018-11-26 22:51:37","author":"Daniela Staiculescu","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2018-11-28T13:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2018-11-28T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2018-11-28T15:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2018-11-28 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2018-11-28 20:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2018-11-28 20:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"434371","name":"ECE Ph.D. Proposal Oral Exams"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"},{"id":"1808","name":"graduate students"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
