Abstract
Described is a die having photodetectors provided on a first surface thereof. The die includes an insulative shell member, a conductive shell member and a photodetector conductor. The insulative shell member extends around a periphery of the photodetector receptors and extending through a depth of the semiconductor die. The conductive shell member bridges the insulative shell member and extends through the depth of the semiconductor die. The photodetector conductors are provided on the first surface of the semiconductor die and electrically couple respective photodetectors with a corresponding conductive shell member. Also described is a process for making a semiconductor die and an integrated circuit structure.
