A technology is proposed for the fabrication of three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D-ICs) having a large number of device layers, referred to as `cumulatively bonded IC' (CUBIC) technology wherein several thin-film devices are bonded cumulatively. The technology was used to fabricate a two-active-layer device having a bulk-Si NMOSFET lower layer and a thinned NMOSFET upper layer. The CUBIC technology, essentially a face-to-back device bonding technology, is applicable to fabricating 3D-ICs…

A new 3-D MCM fabrication technology for high-speed chip-to-chip communication: vertically connected thin-film chip (VCTC) technology
A new 3-D MCM fabrication technology referred as "Vertically Connected Thin-film Chip (VCTC)" technology, has been developed. The VCTC process consists of chip thinning by CMP, the thinned-chip…
Creating 3D circuits using transferred films
TLDR
This work has developed an interconnection technology that allows layers to be electrically connected to one another and can be placed anywhere on the die, which gives this technology a unique advantage over other existing 3D interconnect techniques.
A back-to-face silicon layer stacking for three-dimensional integration
We have successfully demonstrated a back-to-face ultra-thin silicon layer stacking based on low temperature wafer bonding and etch-back. This type of silicon layer stacking can be expanded to wafers…
Characteristics of thin-film devices for a stack-type MCM
A stack-type multichip module (MCM) or CUBIC (cumulative bonded IC) is proposed. The CUBIC is composed of thin-film device layers that are only a few micrometers thick stacked vertically and…
