Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to optical packages having a package body that includes a light protection coating on at least one surface of a transparent material. The light protection coating includes one or more openings to allow light to be transmitted to the optical device within the package body. In one embodiment, the light protection coating and the openings allow substantially perpendicular radiation to be directed to the optical device within the package body. In one exemplary embodiment the light protection coating is located on an outer surface of the transparent material. In another embodiment, the light protection coating is located on an inner surface of the transparent material inside of the package body.

Semiconductor optical package and method

A semiconductor wafer has integrated circuits formed thereon and a top passivation layer applied. The passivation layer is patterned and selectively etched to expose contact pads on each semiconductor die. The wafer is exposed to ionized gas causing the upper surface of passivation layer to roughen and to slightly roughen the upper surface of the contact pads. The wafer is cut to form a plurality of semiconductor dies each with a roughened passivation layer. The plurality of semiconductor dies are placed on an adhesive layer and a reconstituted wafer formed. Redistribution layers are formed to complete the semiconductor package having electrical contacts for establishing electrical connections external to the semiconductor package, after which the wafer is singulated to separate the dice.

Plasma treatment on semiconductor wafers

A bar formed from a reconstituted wafer and containing one or more conductive material filled voids is used to electrically and physically connect the top and bottom packages in a package-on-package (PoP) package. The bar is disposed in the fan out area of the lower package forming the PoP package.

Embedded wafer level ball grid array bar systems and methods

A method of forming an embedded wafer level optical package includes attaching a sensor die, PCB bars and an LED on adhesive tape laminated on a carrier, attaching a dam between two light sensitive sensors of the sensor die, encapsulating the sensor die, the PCB bars, the LED, and the dam in an encapsulation layer, debonding the carrier, grinding a top surface of the encapsulation layer, forming vias through the encapsulation layer to the sensor die and the LED, filling the vias with conductive material, metalizing the top surface of the encapsulation layer, dielectric coating of the top surface of the encapsulation layer, dielectric coating of a bottom surface of the encapsulation layer, patterning the dielectric coating of the bottom surface of the encapsulation layer, and plating the patterned dielectric coating of the bottom surface of the encapsulation layer.
