    摘要: Described herein is a semiconductor structure and method of manufacture. The semiconductor structure includes a plurality of semiconductor fins on a substrate and a plurality of raised active regions, wherein each raised active region is located on sidewalls of a corresponding semiconductor fin among said plurality of semiconductor fins. The raised active regions are laterally spaced from any other of the raised active regions. Each raised active region comprises angled sidewall surfaces that are not parallel or perpendicular to a topmost horizontal surface of said substrate. The raised active regions are silicon germanium (SiGe). The semiconductor structure includes a metal semiconductor alloy region contacting at least said angled sidewall surfaces of at least two adjacent raised active regions. The semiconductor alloy region includes a material selected from the group consisting of nickel silicide, nickel-platinum silicide and cobalt silicide.

    摘要: A method is provided to supply power to wafer-scale ICs. The method includes receiving a wafer containing ICs placed on the top of the wafer. The wafer has through-hole vias to provide power from the bottom to the ICs. The method also includes a printed circuit board, which has power rails in a pattern on the top of the printed circuit board, where the rails provide voltage and ground. The method continues with placing metal solder spheres between the bottom of the wafer and the top of the printed circuit board, where the spheres provide connections between the two, and where the spheres are free to move and operate as mechanical springs to resist clamping forces. The method also includes applying clamping pressure to the structure to establish connections by compressing the spheres, where no soldering is required.
