    Abstract: Microfeature dies with porous regions, and associated methods and systems are disclosed. A method in accordance with one embodiment of the invention includes forming a porous region between a die and a remainder portion of a microfeature workpiece, and separating the die from the remainder portion by removing at least a portion of the porous region. For example, the die can be removed from the remainder portion by making a cut at the porous region (e.g., with a rotating saw blade), etching material from the porous region, or directing a water jet at the porous region. In other embodiments, a porous region of the microfeature workpiece can receive conductive material to form a conductive pathway (e.g., a line and/or via) in the workpiece. In still further embodiments, the porous regions of the workpiece can be formed electrolytically with electrodes that are spaced apart from the workpiece and/or support relative movement between the electrodes and the workpiece.

In one embodiment, a method of forming an interconnect in a microfeature workpiece includes forming a hole extending through a terminal and a dielectric layer to at least an intermediate depth in a substrate of a workpiece. The hole has a first lateral dimension in the dielectric layer and a second lateral dimension in the substrate proximate to an interface between the dielectric layer and the substrate. The second lateral dimension is greater than the first lateral dimension. The method further includes constructing an electrically conductive interconnect in at least a portion of the hole and in electrical contact with the terminal.

    Abstract: A method for fabricating an interconnect for testing a semiconductor component includes the steps of providing a substrate, and forming interconnect contacts on the substrate configured to electrically engage component contacts on the component. The interconnect contacts include flexible spring segments defined by grooves in the substrate, shaped openings in the substrate, or shaped portions of the substrate. The spring segments are configured to flex to exert spring forces on the component contacts, and to compensate for variations in the size or planarity of the component contacts. The interconnect can be configured to test wafer sized components, or to test die sized components.

Alternatively, conductive nanotubes may be formed in the cavity, and dielectric material may be deposited that surrounds the nanotubes. A method of forming a multichip module includes forming at least one via extending through a plurality of stacked dice that includes a plurality of conductive elements.
