Abstract
Trenched-bonding-dam devices and corresponding methods of manufacture are provided. A trenched-bonding-dam device includes a bonding dam structure positioned upon a top surface of a substrate. The bonding dam structure has a bottom surface attached to a top surface of the substrate, an inner dam surrounded by an outer dam, and a trench between the inner and outer dams. The device may further include an optics system including a lens and an adhesive positioned within a bonding region between a bottom surface of the optics system and a top surface of at least one of the inner and outer dams. The trench may be dimensioned to receive a portion of the excess adhesive flowing laterally out of the bonding region during bonding of the substrate to the optics system, laterally confining the excess adhesive and reducing lateral bleeding of the adhesive.
