Semiconductor package having polymeric interlayer disposed between conductive elements and dielectric layer

Abstract:

The present disclosure provides a substrate for an integrated circuit. The substrate includes a dielectric layer. The substrate further includes a plurality of conductive elements at least partially embedded within the dielectric layer and having a substantially smooth outer surface. The substrate further includes an interlayer disposed between the individual conductive elements and the dielectric layer. The interlayer has a first surface comprising a plurality of protrusions interlocked with the dielectric layer and a second surface adhered to the outer surface of the individual conductive elements.
