The first semiconductor chip 4 of the semiconductor-fabricating device shown in Fig. 1 and the Connection Step of the second semiconductor chip 7 is had to be described to use.As shown in Fig. 1 (a), load the second semiconductor chip 7 on platen 3.Second semiconductor chip 7 absorption remains on platform 3.Bonding head 2 is utilized to adsorb maintenance first semiconductor chip 4.While by the second salient pole 44 position alignment to the 3rd salient pole 72, the first semiconductor chip 4 making absorption remain on bonding head 2 moves on the second semiconductor chip 7 of being placed on platform 3.
As shown in Fig. 1 (b), such as utilize driving mechanism that bonding head 2 is declined, thus while make the second salient pole 44 contact with the 3rd salient pole 72, make to move to the first semiconductor chip 4 lamination on the second semiconductor chip 7 on the second semiconductor chip 7.While be heated to the temperature of more than the connection temperature of salient pole 44,72, or ultrasonic waves is applied, while utilize driving mechanism apply loading to the first semiconductor chip 4 and be crimped onto the second semiconductor chip 7 to salient pole 44,72.Utilize this crimping step, the second salient pole 44 is connected with the 3rd salient pole 72 and forms projection connector 8.
As the formation material of salient pole 44,72, the metal material such as welding material or Cu, Ni, Au, Ag, Pd, Sn being included in Sn the Sn alloy that with the addition of Cu, Ag, Bi, In etc. can be enumerated.As the concrete example of welding material (without Pb welding), Sn-Cu alloy, Sn-Ag alloy, Sn-Ag-Cu alloy etc. can be enumerated.Metal material is not limited to monofilm, also can be the laminated film of multiple metal film such as Cu/Ni, Cu/Ni/Cu, Cu/Ni/Au, Ni/Au, Cu/Au.And then metal material also can be the alloy comprising metal as above.As the combination of the second salient pole 44 and the 3rd salient pole 72, illustrate welding/welding, metal/welding, welding/metal, metal/metal etc.And, about the shape of the second salient pole 44 and the 3rd salient pole 72, shape for lugs combination each other or the combinations of shape for lugs and the even shape as weld pad such as hemispherical or column can be used.
In at least one in the second salient pole 44 and the 3rd salient pole 72, preferably use welding material.Consider that bonding head 2 is to the adsorptivity etc. of the first semiconductor chip 4, preferably in the lower surface 41b side of the first semiconductor chip 4, form the salient pole 44 comprising the welding material such as Sn-Cu alloy, Sn-Ag-Cu alloy, in the upper surface 71a side of the second semiconductor chip 7, form the salient pole 14 comprising the metal materials such as Cu/Ni/Cu, Cu/Ni/Au, Ni/Au.In the case, the salient pole 44 comprising welding material is preferably set to shape for lugs, and the salient pole 72 comprising metal material is preferably set to even shape.The connection temperature of so-called salient pole 44,72 is temperature of more than the fusing point of the welding used when utilizing at least one in welding formation salient pole 44,72.
The first salient pole 42 being arranged on the upper surface 41a side of the first semiconductor chip 4 on the first semiconductor chip 4, during other semiconductor chips of lamination, is playing the salient pole of function as connecting electrode further.Here, to when lamination first semiconductor chip 4 and the second semiconductor chip 7, the situation that second salient pole 44 is connected with the 3rd salient pole 72 is carried out describe, but when being multistage by semiconductor chip lamination further, also can by temporary fixed between salient pole 44,72, after all semiconductor chips of lamination, carry out Reflow Soldering or thermo-compressed and formally connect between salient pole.
When the first semiconductor chip 4 is crimped onto the second semiconductor chip 7, via elastomer chuck 5, loading is added to the first semiconductor chip 4.The first surface 51 of elastomer chuck 5 is in the state being trapped in the first salient pole 42.In this state, if elastomer chuck 5 and rigid body chuck retainer 6 are respectively with plane contact, then around load dispersing to the forming region of the first salient pole 42.Its result, cannot apply loading to the second salient pole 44 being arranged on the position (overlapping position) corresponding with the first salient pole 42 fully.This situation causes the bad connection between salient pole 42,72, or becomes the main cause that the connection reliability between salient pole 42,72 is reduced.
In the semiconductor-fabricating device 1 of execution mode, at elastomer chuck 5 contact-making surface with rigid body chuck retainer 6, the forming region of the first salient pole 42 is set, and then in the forming region of the second salient pole 44, loading is concentrated concavo-convex is set.In the first embodiment, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, at the bottom surface 61a of the recess 61 of rigid body chuck retainer 6, arrange with the projection forming region X1 ~ X5 of the first semiconductor chip 4 shown in Fig. 2 and then abut protuberance 62A ~ 62E corresponding to region Y1 ~ Y5 with the projection of the elastomer chuck 5 shown in Fig. 3.Protuberance 62A ~ the 62E of rigid body chuck retainer 6 is positioned at directly over the forming region (and forming region of the second salient pole 44) of the first salient pole 42 of semiconductor chip 4.
There is second face 52 of rigid body chuck retainer 6 relative to elastomer chuck 5 of protuberance 62A ~ 62E, only connect with the upper surface of protuberance 62A ~ 62E.Therefore, loading can be applied to elastomer chuck 5 from rigid body chuck retainer 6 partly via protuberance 62A ~ 62E.The loading being applied to the first semiconductor chip 4 abuts region Y1 ~ Y5 via each region, the i.e. projection of the elastomer chuck 5 corresponding with protuberance 62A ~ 62E, concentrates the forming region being attached to salient pole 42,44.According to these situations, the connectivity of the second salient pole 42 and the 3rd salient pole 72 can be improved, and then the connection reliability between salient pole 42,72 can be improved.Therefore, the chip laminate of the first semiconductor chip 4 and the second semiconductor chip 7 is connected under higher reliability can be produced on.
When the protuberance 62A ~ 62E via rigid body chuck retainer 6 applies loading to elastomer chuck 5, the height of protuberance 62A ~ 62E is preferably set to more than 10 μm and less than 1000 μm.If the height of protuberance 62A ~ 62E is less than 10 μm, then loading cannot be made to focus on the forming region of salient pole 42,44 fully.If the height of protuberance 62A ~ 62E is more than 1000 μm, then the elastomeric distance transmitting loading becomes long, and the loading being applied to the forming region of salient pole 42,44 thus reduces.In either case, all there is the worry that connectivity between salient pole 42,72 and connection reliability reduce.The shape of about 5mm that the flat shape of protuberance 62A ~ 62E is preferably large than the shape consistent with the forming region of salient pole 42,44.If make the flat shape of protuberance 62A ~ 62E exceedingly be greater than the forming region of salient pole 42,44, then loading reduces for the concentration efficiency of salient pole 42,44.
The layering steps employing the semiconductor chip of the semiconductor-fabricating device 1 of execution mode is not limited to the situation of lamination 2 semiconductor chips 4,7.Such as, as shown in Figure 6, can on semiconductor chip 4, lamination the 3rd semiconductor chip 4A, further lamination the 4th semiconductor chip 4B.Semiconductor chip 4A, 4B have the structure identical with semiconductor chip 4.On semiconductor chip 4 when lamination semiconductor chip 4A, 4B, repeat to implement the layering steps shown in Fig. 1.As shown in Figure 6, semiconductor chip 4 and semiconductor chip 4A utilize salient pole 42 to be electrically connected with the connector 8A of salient pole 44A and to be mechanically connected.And then semiconductor chip 4A and semiconductor chip 4B utilize salient pole 42A to be electrically connected with the connector 8B of salient pole 44B and to be mechanically connected.The lamination quantity of semiconductor chip is any amount.
(the second execution mode)
Secondly, with reference to Fig. 7 to Fig. 9, the semiconductor-fabricating device of the second execution mode is described.Fig. 7 represents the semiconductor-fabricating device of the second execution mode and uses its cutaway view of interelectrode Connection Step.Semiconductor-fabricating device 21 shown in Fig. 7 possesses the rigid body chuck retainer 6 with protuberance 62A ~ 62E that the elastomer chuck 5 with protuberance replaces the first execution mode.In addition, there is following situation: identical symbol is indicated to the part identical with the first execution mode of the second execution mode, omits the part in the explanation of these parts.
In the semiconductor-fabricating device 21 of the second execution mode, rigid body chuck retainer 6 has the recess 61 embedded for elastomer chuck 5.The bottom surface 61a of recess 61 is set to plane.On the other hand, as can be seen from figures 8 and 9, in the second face 52 of elastomer chuck 5, arrange with the projection forming region X1 ~ X5 of the first semiconductor chip 4 shown in Fig. 2 and then abut protuberance 53A ~ 53E corresponding to region Y1 ~ Y5 with the projection in the second face 51.Protuberance 53A ~ the 53E of elastomer chuck 5 is positioned at directly over the forming region (and forming region of the second salient pole 44) of the first salient pole 42 of semiconductor chip 4.
There is the bottom surface 61a of elastomer chuck 5 relative to the recess 61 of rigid body chuck retainer 6 of protuberance 53A ~ 53E, only connect with the upper surface of protuberance 53A ~ 53E.Therefore, loading can be applied to elastomer chuck 5 from rigid body chuck retainer 6 locally via protuberance 53A ~ 53E.The loading being applied to the first semiconductor chip 4 abuts region Y1 ~ Y5 via each region, the i.e. projection of the elastomer chuck 5 corresponding with protuberance 53A ~ 53E, concentrates the forming region being attached to salient pole 42,44.According to these situations, the connectivity of the second salient pole 42 and the 3rd salient pole 72 can be improved, and then the connection reliability between salient pole 42,72 can be improved.Therefore, the chip laminate of the first semiconductor chip 4 and the second semiconductor chip 7 is connected under higher reliability can be produced on.
As mentioned above, loading is made to focus on concavo-convex any one face that also can be formed in the face 52 connected with rigid body chuck retainer 6 of elastomer chuck 5 and the face 61a connected with elastomer chuck 5 of rigid body chuck retainer 6 of the forming region of salient pole 42,44.And, according to circumstances, also can arrange concavo-convex two sides of elastomer chuck 5 and rigid body chuck retainer 6.But, if consider ease or the processing cost of processing when forming the protuberance making loading concentrate, and being considered as the replacement frequency etc. of elastomer chuck 5 of running stores, then the preferred face 61a connected with elastomer chuck 5 at rigid body chuck retainer 6 forms protuberance 62A ~ 62E.
In addition, several execution mode of the present invention is illustrated, but these execution modes are exemplarily pointed out, be not intended to limit scope of invention.These execution modes can be implemented with other various forms, can carry out various omission, displacement, change in the scope of purport not departing from invention.These execution modes and change thereof are included in scope of invention or purport, are included in the scope of invention described in claims and equalization thereof simultaneously.
