3D microelectronics integration and wafer scale packaging promise improvements in functional density and cost compared to conventional 2D microelectronics and packaging technologies. The realization of these improvements will require further adoption of 3D volume manufacturing process technologies. These process technologies will likely include through silicon via (TSV) and die or wafer bonding with and without 3D interconnect. Low temperature direct bond technologies have a number of inherent performance and cost advantages compared to other bonding technologies. This paper describes low temperature direct oxide bond technologies with and without a scalable 3D interconnect developed by Ziptronix and cost savings, performance and applications that will be enabled by adoption of these technologies. Enabled cost savings and performance include system or network-on-chip, system in package, and TSVs. Enabled applications include backside illuminated image sensors, micron-scale pitch vertically integrated image sensor arrays, 3D system-on-chip and 3D network-on-chip.

Lidar techniques, based on the time-of-flight principle, have been widely employed in atmospheric remote sensing since decades. The Scheimpflug lidar (SLidar) technique, which employing robust high-power laser diodes as light sources and highly integrated CCD/CMOS image sensor as detectors, has been recently developed for various atmospheric applications. Range-resolved atmospheric backscattering signal is obtained by capturing the backscattering imaging of transmitted continuous-wave laser beam based on the Scheimpflug principle. This paper reported recent advances in aerosol and trace gas monitoring by employing the SLidar techniques.

Abstract Compared to human vision, conventional machine vision composed of an image sensor and processor suffers from high latency and large power consumption due to physically separated image sensing and processing. A neuromorphic vision system with brain-inspired visual perception provides a promising solution to the problem. Here we propose and demonstrate a prototype neuromorphic vision system by networking a retinomorphic sensor with a memristive crossbar. We fabricate the retinomorphic sensor by using WSe2/h-BN/Al2O3 van der Waals heterostructures with gate-tunable photoresponses, to closely mimic the human retinal capabilities in simultaneously sensing and processing images. We then network the sensor with a large-scale Pt/Ta/HfO2/Ta one-transistor-one-resistor (1T1R) memristive crossbar, which plays a similar role to the visual cortex in the human brain. The realized neuromorphic vision system allows for fast letter recognition and object tracking, indicating the capabilities of image sensing, processing and recognition in the full analog regime. Our work suggests that such a neuromorphic vision system may open up unprecedented opportunities in future visual perception applications.
