Abstract:
A semiconductor processing method, comprising:providing an insulative substrate having a pair of opposing surfaces and an opening extending therethrough, the opening extending from one of the opposing surfaces to an other of the opposing surfaces; providing a semiconductive-material-comprising die adjacent said one of the opposing surfaces of the insulative substrate and having an upper surface exposed through the opening in the insulative substrate, the die having an edge, a gap being between the die and the insulative substrate and being exposed through the opening; flowing a liquid radiation-curable material through the opening and into the gap; and directing radiation from beside the die substantially parallel to the upper surface and over the edge to effectively cure at least a portion of the radiation-curable material within the gap and thus form a dam which impedes non-cured radiation-curable material from flowing beyond the edge, and wherein the dam is formed during the flowing of the liquid radiation-curable material.
