Abstract
A method for manipulating ions contained in an encapsulation material for a semiconductor device is provided. The method includes processing the encapsulation material and applying an electric field to the encapsulation material before the encapsulation material is finally cured. The ions contained in the encapsulation material have a mobility that decreases as the encapsulation material cures. By applying the electric field to the encapsulation material before the encapsulation material is finally cured, the amount of ions contained in the encapsulation material is reduced and/or the ions contained are concentrated in one or more regions of the encapsulation material. Corresponding apparatuses and semiconductor packages manufactured by the method are also described.
