 Diced wafers.
These are individual silicon chips (rejects) cut from a larger wafer such as you can see examples of above. Had they not been rejected, these would have been placed in an IC package and then robots would have soldered a nest of extremely fine wires all around to make contact with the inputs and outputs on the chip and connect them to the pins on the package.
