The TSV process module consists of the TSV integration, a carrier wafer handling and a wafer backside process to realize a redistribution layer. A process flow was developed to realize TSV structures with various geometries to ensure a high TSV design flexibility. The TSV process module can be applied for SiGe BiCMOS as well as for interposer technologies.High-performance TSV interconnections have been simulated to optimize their electrical properties. TSVs were electrically characterized and 3D transitions with low insertion loss <1 dB up to 300 GHz have been demonstrated thus providing excellent RF performance up to sub-THz frequencies.Different application areas like RF grounding, interposers with integrated waveguides as well as 300 GHz antennas are demonstrated. The potential of millimeter-wave packaging and 3D integration was evaluated.In this work, the use of TSVs for the millimeter wave and sub-THz frequency range was demonstrated. This opens up new possibilities for system integration and packaging of ultra-high frequency systems. 210 pp. Englisch. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9783961001965
