Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device having a sensor array or image sensing portion therein, the device comprising: a patterned polymer formed on the semiconductor device proximate the sensor array or image sensing portion thereof, said patterned polymer consisting of a norbornene-type polymer comprising at least a first type of repeat unit, a second type of repeat unit, and a third type of repeat unit, said first type of repeat unit being derived from an aralkyl-norbornene monomer and represented by formula Ia, said second type of repeat unit being derived from an alkyl-norbornene monomer and represented by formula IIa, and said third type of repeat unit being derived from an epoxy containing norbornene monomer and represented by at least one of formula IIIa and formula IVa, where x is from 1 to 25, y is from 0 to 19, z is from 1 to 25, A is a linking group selected from C a cover comprising glass or plastic, said cover being fixedly coupled to the patterned polymer, where said patterned polymer maintains said cover in spaced relation from the sensor array or image sensing portion and fixedly attaches said cover to said semiconductor device.
