Abstract

Abstract A silicone die attach adhesive comprising a silicone composition that cures both through the free radical reaction of acrylic-functional organopolysiloxane as induced by exposure to high-energy radiation and through the hydrosilylation reaction between alkenyl-functional organopolysiloxane and silicon-bonded hydrogen-functional organopolysiloxane. Also, a fabrication method characterized by mounting a semiconductor chip on a substrate or in a package with the aforesaid silicone die attach adhesive sandwiched between the semiconductor chip and substrate or package, then inducing the free radical reaction of the acrylic functional groups by exposing the die attach adhesive to high-energy radiation, and thereafter curing the die attach adhesive by the hydrosilylation reaction. A semiconductor device characterized in that it has been fabricated by the above-described method.
