Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a method for embedding a radio frequency chip in a silicon cavity.
Background
The millimeter wave radio frequency technology is rapidly developed in the semiconductor industry, is widely applied to the fields of high-speed data communication, automobile radars, airborne missile tracking systems, space spectrum detection and imaging and the like, is expected to reach 11 billion dollars in market in 2018, and becomes a new industry. The new application puts new requirements on the electrical performance, compact structure and system reliability of the product, and the wireless transmitting and receiving system cannot be integrated on the same chip (SOC) at present, so that different chips including a radio frequency unit, a filter, a power amplifier and the like need to be integrated into a separate system to realize the functions of transmitting and receiving signals.
In the traditional packaging process, various functional chips and passive devices are mounted on a substrate, so that the occupied area is large, the reliability is poor, and the trend of more and more miniaturization of a packaging system cannot be met.
According to the three-dimensional heterogeneous technology based on the cavity structure, a radio frequency chip is often required to be embedded in the cavity, and the surface interconnection of the PAD and the transfer board of the chip is facilitated. However, the bottom of the radio frequency chip needs to be subjected to heat dissipation and grounding interconnection, so that the bottom of the chip needs to be contacted with a TSV copper column. For the structure that the radio frequency chip is embedded into the silicon cavity, if the TSV is made first, the cavity needs to be made on the back of the adapter plate, the bottom of the cavity is made at the bottom of the TSV, then interconnection is made, the depths of the TSV have differences, and the bottom made in this way is uneven and not beneficial to grounding interconnection of the chip.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention overcomes the defects of the prior art, and provides the embedding method of the radio frequency chip in the silicon cavity, which has the advantages of convenient manufacture, simplified process and realization of heat dissipation and grounding interconnection at the bottom of the radio frequency chip.

102) a cavity manufacturing step: thinning the upper surface of the carrier plate, wherein the thinned thickness is between 100nm and 700 um; the thinning treatment is directly carried out on the back of the carrier plate, or the surface of the carrier plate, which is provided with the TSV holes, is protected by a temporary bonding process, and then a slide glass is used for supporting the back of the thinned carrier plate;
performing dry etching or wet etching on the surface of the TSV hole region arranged on the upper surface of the carrier plate by using a dry etching process to form a cavity; the overall shape of the cavity is square, round, oval or triangular, and the side wall of the cavity is arranged vertically or obliquely; wherein, the cavity is corroded and stopped at the SOI layer of the carrier plate;
the conversion gas continuously etches the SOI layer and the carrier plate to expose the metal column;
103) chip embedding: embedding the chip with solder on the surface into the cavity, and heating to interconnect the solder and the metal column; and filling glue in gaps between the chip and the cavity by using a bottom glue filling or surface spin coating process, and removing residual glue on the surface of the chip by using a dry etching or wet etching process after curing to obtain the structure of embedding the radio frequency chip in the silicon cavity.
Furthermore, the diameter range of the TSV hole is between 1um and 1000um, and the depth of the TSV hole is between 10um and 1000 um; the thickness of the insulating layer ranges from 10nm to 100 um; the thickness of the seed layer ranges from 1nm to 100um, the seed layer is of one-layer or multi-layer structure, and the metal material of each layer is one or a mixture of more of titanium, copper, aluminum, silver, palladium, gold, thallium, tin and nickel.
Furthermore, the size of the carrier plate is one of 4, 6, 8 and 12 inches, the thickness of the carrier plate is 200um to 2000um, and the carrier plate is made of one of silicon, glass, quartz, silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, epoxy resin or polyurethane.
Further, the TSV hole in the step 101) is etched to stay at the SOI layer, and then the gas exchange is carried out to continue etching so that the bottom of the TSV penetrates through the SOI layer.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that: according to the invention, the carrier plate with the SOI layer is used as the base material, the etching process is optimized, and the silicon oxide layer in the SOI layer is used as the barrier layer, so that the height and the flatness of the TSV copper column at the bottom of the cavity are greatly increased, and the bottom of the radio frequency chip is efficiently contacted with the TSV copper column.
