            Abstract : 
To circumvent the performance and energy bottlenecks due to interconnects, novel interconnect solutions are needed both at the package and die levels. This paper reports (1) novel photodefined polymer-embedded vias within silicon interposers for improved through-silicon via insertion loss, and (2) ultrahigh density low-capacitance nanoscale TSVs with 100 nm diameter and 20:1 aspect ratio for fine-grain 3D IC implementation.
