Abstract
The disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to barrier structures for underfill blockout regions uses in phonotics chip packaging and methods of manufacture. The structure includes a substrate with a plurality of solder connections and at least one optical fiber interface disposed within at least one cavity of the substrate. The structure further includes a barrier structure formed about the cavity which is structured to prevent underfill material from degrading an optical coupling of the optical fiber.
