Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of vertical copper connecting line of silicon through hole of integrated circuit high-aspect-ratio, the invention still further relates to employing and turn to electro-deposition techniques to prepare the method for this vertical copper connecting line.
Background technology
Interconnecting silicon through holes technology is except improving the transmission characteristic of interconnection density and high speed signal, can also reduce power loss by reducing the length of whole lead-in wire, simultaneously contact hole is also for the Joule heat that tube core sends provides heat dissipation channel, thereby provides more excellent solution for the three-dimensional of MEMS encapsulation and IC is integrated.But interconnecting silicon through holes technology still faces the interior zero defect metallization of making, through hole of small through hole and the technical challenges such as formation of interconnection line and silicon substrate electric insulation.This project is conceived to the preparation of electro-coppering interconnection line in through hole.Plating has been the main technique of copper interconnecting line.The main purpose of electroplating be in silicon through hole, be full of densification, without hole, seamless and other defect, the copper that is evenly distributed.Although existing copper plating process can obtain satisfactory interconnection line in depth-to-width ratio is less than 10 through hole, but the through hole for high-aspect-ratio (> 10), electro-coppering interconnection line makes electric conductivity variation owing to containing cavity and other defect, even opens circuit.
Recently, the application study about pulse plating in integrated circuit copper interconnecting line more and more come into one's own [1,2].The people such as Dixit [2] have proposed a kind of new electroplating technology electro-coppering interconnection line in the through hole of high-aspect-ratio.In experiment, the silicon wafer that the method that first adopts STS DRIE is 200-400 μ m at thickness etches the through hole of diameter 10-30 μ m, and on the inwall of through hole, grow 1.8 silicon dioxide layers of μ m and the silicon nitride layer of 200nm stop copper to the diffusion of silicon.The gold seeds that 300nm is thick be deposited upon one contact disk on, and target silicon wafer with photoresist temporary bonding get up.Employing is by the plating mode of the end to top, and in order to make the deposition rate of copper in electroplating process keep constant, they have proposed " electrodeposition technology that depth-to-width ratio relies on ", are exactly high-aspect-ratio in brief, low positive current density, high negative-phase sequence curent density.But, because the upper and lower diameter of through hole is identical, in this method use procedure, need constantly to adjust size of current, adapt to the variation [2] of acid copper depth-to-width ratio, technique is relatively cumbersome, and is unfavorable for the effusion of the bubble that produces in electrodeposition process.
In addition, adopt at present electrodeposition technology to prepare the flawless copper interconnecting line of depth-to-width ratio about 15 also more difficult.List of references: [1] Al-Sarawi SF, Abbott D, Franzon PD.A review of 3-D packagingtechnology.Ieee Transactions on Components Packaging and ManufacturingTechnology Part B-Advanced Packaging 1998; 21:2.
