Abstract:
An adhesive with self-connecting interconnects is provided. The adhesive layer provides automatic 3D joining of microelectronic components with a conductively self-adjusting anisotropic matrix. In an implementation, the adhesive matrix automatically makes electrical connections between two surfaces that have opposing electrical contacts, and bonds the two surfaces together. Conductive members in the adhesive matrix are aligned to automatically establish electrical connections between at least partially aligned contacts on each of the two surfaces while providing nonconductive adhesion between parts of the two surfaces lacking aligned contacts. An example method includes forming an adhesive matrix between two surfaces to be joined, including conductive members anisotropically aligned in an adhesive medium, then pressing the two surfaces together to automatically connect corresponding electrical contacts that are at least partially aligned on the two surfaces. The adhesive medium in the matrix secures the two surfaces together.

Claim (Index 16):
The adhesive of  claim 1 , wherein the adhesive medium is capable of softening and flowing under a vacuum while the conductive members connect the vertically corresponding electrical contacts of two surfaces being adhered together.
