Abstract:
1. A method of forming a connection between a first die and a second die of a multiple die structure, the method comprising: providing a connection structure comprising an electrically conductive material contained within an interior space of a carbon nanotube; placing the connection structure adjacent to the first die in order to form a first interface between the first die and the connection structure; placing the second die adjacent to the connection structure in order to form a second interface between the second die and the connection structure; and bonding the first die to the connection structure by applying a first voltage across the first interface in order to cause at least a portion of the electrically conductive material to flow out of the carbon nanotube and contact the first die at the first interface, and bonding the second die to the connection structure by applying a second voltage across the second interface in order to cause at least a portion of the electrically conductive material to flow out of the carbon nanotube and contact the second die at the second interface.
