As shown in Figure 5, laser-marking wafer horizontal chip-level method for packing 500 comprises step 510, and some semiconductor device are formed on the front surface (Fig. 1) of wafer 100 in this step.Metallization is formed on the device contacts of wafer front in step 520.In the step 530, the back side of wafer is by mechanical lapping.As the result of grinding operation, as shown in Figure 1, the silicon layer 110 of damage is formed on chip back surface.
Next the silicon layer 110 that in the silicon etching operation, damages is removed with this in the back side of etched wafer 100 in step 540.Therefore as shown in Figure 2 a very smooth back side is provided.After the silicon etching operation, the back side 120 of wafer 100 is by laser-marking in step 550.As shown in Figure 3, the result of laser-marking has caused overleaf forming on 120 some grooves 130.In step 560, carry out oxide etching and operate the Si oxide on the back side 120 of removing wafer 100, in step 570, depositing metal layers 140 (Fig. 4) on chip back surface 120.In optional step 580, optional solder ball is formed on the metallized device contacts.In step 590, wafer 100 is cut into independently wafer-level package.
As shown in Figure 4, after deposition step 570, the groove 130 that is formed on wafer 100 back sides 120 makes generation indentation 150 on the metal layer on back 140.Metal layer on back 140 is continuous, and the electric current of consistency of thickness to guarantee to flow through subsequently wherein.Visual contrast on metal in the indentation 150 and the metal level 140 between the metal of remainder provides identification capability, and the wafer horizontal chip utmost point of crossing with identification marking encapsulates.Be illustrated in figure 6 as the sign 600 that forms according to method 500.For example, laser-marking can comprise some information, corporate logo for example, product type, battery size, pin positions.
According to the present invention, the laser-marking 600 that the wafer horizontal chip-level encapsulation comprises is to utilize groove 130 that is formed on the silicon wafer back side 120 and the corresponding indentation 150 that is formed on the metal level 140 that covers the back side to form.
The typical thickness that is used for the wafer of power MOSFET manufacturing is 200 μ m, and preferably less than 300 μ m.Whole back metal thickness ranges is 0.5-10 μ m, and preferably about 2.5 μ m.The composition of metal layer on back comprises the titanium/nickel/silver/nickel of sandwich construction, titanium/nickel/silver, titanium/gold, titanium/nickel/gold, titanium/aluminium, perhaps titanium/aluminium/nickel/gold.Through the thin wafer with thicker relatively metal layer on back is provided, the resistance of MOSFET wafer horizontal chip-level encapsulation can reduce.Although specification has provided typical thickness and preferred thickness, those skilled in the art know that the method for wafer horizontal chip-level encapsulation and this encapsulation of laser-marking can realize on the wafer of any thickness.
The inventor finds that silicon etch steps 540 must be operated before laser-marking step 550.Otherwise the danger that the metal level at the back side that the serious particle pollution at the device back side will cause following peels off.In test, silicon etch steps 540 is in laser-marking step 550 back rather than before it, operate, even the optical frequency ultrasonic cleaning technology can not effectively solve the problem of particle pollution.When silicon etch steps 540 was operated behind laser-induced thermal etching step 550 rather than oxide etching, just not at the needs cleaning step, and particle pollution also was minimum.
The wafer horizontal chip-level encapsulation provides the wafer-level package with continuous metal layer on back with its laser marking method.Back face metalization behind the laser-marking on the exposed silicon layer has overleaf been guaranteed the continuity of metal level at the back.
Obviously, under the situation of scope of the present invention, above execution mode can be made a lot of modifications.And each purpose of specific embodiment all comprises the theme of patentability, and does not spend other purposes of considering same embodiment.Further, the various aspects of different embodiment can combine.Therefore, scope of the present invention should be by following claim and its legal Peer decision.
