FULL WAFER DEVICE WITH BACK SIDE PASSIVE ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17930801 titled 'FULL WAFER DEVICE WITH BACK SIDE PASSIVE ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes full wafer devices with passive devices formed in a power delivery structure, where power is delivered to the device on the backside. The passive device in the backside layer is formed with a seam running through it, which could be an air gap, a change in material structure, or a region with a different chemical makeup.

Original Abstract Submitted
Described herein are full wafer devices that include passive devices formed in a power delivery structure. Power is delivered to the full wafer device on a backside of the full wafer device. A passive device in a backside layer is formed using an additive process that results in a seam running through the passive device. The seam may be, for example, an air gap, a change in material structure, or a region with a different chemical makeup from the surrounding passive device.
