Detailed Description
The three-dimensional integrated device and the method of forming the same of the present invention are described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific examples. The advantages and features of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description. It should be understood that the drawings in the specification are in a very simplified form and are all to a non-precise scale, simply to facilitate a clear and thorough description of the embodiments of the invention. It should be noted that the order of steps in the methods presented herein is not necessarily the only order in which the steps are performed, some of the described steps may be omitted and/or some other steps not described herein may be added to the method. It will be understood that the spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the structure in the figures is inverted or otherwise oriented (e.g., rotated), the exemplary term "above … …" may also include "below … …" and other orientations.
The method of forming the three-dimensional integrated device of the present invention will be described first by way of examples.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, in an embodiment of the present invention, step S1 includes: at least two layers of chips are stacked to form a stack 100, the stack 100 having a first surface 100a and a second surface 100b opposite to each other.
The method for forming a three-dimensional integrated device according to the embodiment of the present invention may utilize a three-dimensional integration technique to stack at least two layers of chips to form the stack 100. In the three-dimensional integration technology, a plurality of active devices, passive devices, MEMS devices or discrete chips (such as optoelectronic chips, biochips, memory chips, logic chips, computing chips) having different functions or manufactured by different processes are assembled together in three dimensions (such as X-direction, Y-direction, Z-direction of an orthogonal coordinate system) and form a complete circuit system. Each layer of chips may be formed separately by a separate wafer level process. At least two layers of chips may be stacked by wafer-level, chip-level, or chip-to-wafer processes to form the stack 100. In the stack 100, each layer of chips (or chip layers) is, for example, a wafer, or each layer of chips (or chip layers) is a chip (or die). The number of stacked chip layers in the stack 100 may be different depending on the design, or at least one chip layer is a wafer and at least one chip layer is a chip.
Each layer of chips in the stack 100 may include a semiconductor substrate, an electronic component formed based on the semiconductor substrate fabrication, an interconnect layer, a dielectric layer, and the like. For stacking at least two chips, the chip layers may be stacked together by adhesion or bonding (e.g., hybrid bonding), for example, adhesion or bonding in such a way that the semiconductor substrates face each other, or adhesion or bonding in such a way that the semiconductor substrates face away (as shown in fig. 2), or adhesion or bonding of the semiconductor substrate of one chip layer to the dielectric layer of another chip layer.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2, a logic wafer W1 and a storage wafer W2 are stacked to form a stack 100, via step S1. The logic wafer W1 includes, for example, a first substrate 101 and a logic device formed on a surface of the first substrate 101, where a surface on which the logic device is formed is referred to as a front surface of the first substrate 101, and a surface opposite to the front surface is a back surface of the first substrate 101, and the logic wafer W1 may further include a first interconnect structure 102 formed on a front side of the first substrate 101. The memory wafer W2 includes, for example, a second substrate 103 and a memory device (such as a Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM), a Static Random Access Memory (SRAM), etc.) formed on a surface of the second substrate 103, where a surface on which the memory device is formed is referred to as a front surface of the second substrate 103, and a surface opposite to the front surface is a back surface of the second substrate 103, and the memory wafer W2 may further include a second interconnect structure 104 formed on a front side of the second substrate 103. The first interconnect structure 102 and the second interconnect structure 104 may be multi-layered electrical interconnect structures, for example, including multiple patterned conductive layers and conductive plugs isolated by dielectric materials that provide a connection function between doped regions, circuits, and input/output of the logic wafer W1 or the memory wafer W2. It should be understood that the components and locations of the first interconnect structure 102 and the second interconnect structure 104 are shown only schematically in the drawings and may in fact vary depending on design requirements. For clarity, only portions of the conductive layers and conductive plugs in the first interconnect structure 102 and the second interconnect structure 104 are shown in fig. 2.
As an example, in step S1, the front sides of the first substrate 101 and the second substrate 103 are bonded, the first surface 100a of the stack 100 is the back side of the first substrate 101, and the second surface 100b is the back side of the second substrate 103. The present invention is not limited thereto, and for example, in another embodiment, a plurality of memory wafers and a logic wafer may be stacked to form a corresponding stack, or a plurality of memory chips and a logic chip may be stacked to form a corresponding stack.
Referring to fig. 1 and 3 to 5, in an embodiment of the present invention, step S2 includes: a heat transfer groove TR is formed at the first surface 100a of the stack 100, a length direction of the heat transfer groove TR being parallel to the first surface 100a, the heat transfer groove TR having a first end TR1 and a second end TR2 in the length direction.
The manufacturing of the heat conducting grooves TR includes, for example, the following processes: an patterned mask layer (e.g., photoresist or hard mask) is formed on the first surface 100a of the stack 100, exposing a region of the first surface 100a where the heat conductive trench TR is to be formed, and then the first surface 100a is etched by dry etching or wet etching, forming a trench of a predetermined depth in the stack 100 as the heat conductive trench TR.
As an example, in the present embodiment, the stacked body 100 includes a logic wafer W1 and a storage wafer W2 stacked, and the heat-conducting groove TR is used for the subsequent heat dissipation liquid flowing in the first surface 100a to remove the heat generated in the three-dimensional integrated device, and the heat-conducting groove TR may extend in the first surface 100a as required. The extending direction of the heat conducting grooves TR in the first surface 100a is the length direction thereof. The first end TR1 and the second end TR2 of the heat conducting groove TR in the length direction are located at different positions, and then the first end TR1 is used as a position where the heat dissipation liquid flows into the heat conducting groove TR, and the second end TR2 is used as a position where the heat dissipation liquid flows out of the heat conducting groove TR.
It should be noted that, the heat conduction trench TR is formed on the first surface 100a of the stack 100, i.e., the back surface of the first substrate 101 in the logic wafer W1 shown in fig. 2, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the heat conduction trench may be formed on the storage wafer side in the stack, as needed.
Fig. 4 shows an exemplary simulated planar pattern of thermally conductive grooves TR formed in the first surface 100a of the stack 100. Referring to fig. 4, the first end TR1 and the second end TR2 of the heat conducting groove TR are, for example, two ends of the heat conducting groove TR that are farther away, that is, from the first end TR1 to the second end TR2, respectively, and the heat dissipation fluid needs to flow in the heat conducting groove TR farther away. However, the planar arrangement of the heat transfer grooves TR shown in fig. 4 is merely an example, and one skilled in the art may set the planar arrangement of the heat transfer grooves TR and the first and second ends TR1 and TR2 of the heat transfer grooves TR as needed.
As shown in fig. 4, the first end TR1 and the second end TR2 of the heat conducting groove TR may have a plurality of (e.g., two, three, four, etc.) channel paths therebetween, so that the distribution of the heat conducting groove TR covers a larger range of the first surface 100a. But not limited thereto, the first and second ends TR1 and TR2 of the heat transfer groove TR may have only one channel path therebetween, and the one channel path may be a straight line or a curved line.
Referring to fig. 1 and 5, in an embodiment of the present invention, step S3 includes: a first groove U1 and a second groove U2 are formed in a surface of a slide 200.
The carrier 200 may be a semiconductor substrate, a glass substrate, a ceramic substrate, a polymer substrate, or the like. The first and second grooves U1 and U2 are opposite to the first and second ends TR1 and TR2 of the heat transfer groove TR, respectively, after the subsequent carrier 200 is bonded to the stack 100, and thus the positions of the first and second grooves U1 and U2 may be determined according to the arrangement of the heat transfer groove TR in the stack 100. The cross-sectional area of the first groove U1 may be greater than or less than the area of the first end TR1 of the heat transfer groove TR opposite thereto, and the cross-sectional area of the second groove U2 may be greater than or less than the area of the second end TR2 of the heat transfer groove TR opposite thereto.
Forming the first groove U1 and the second groove U2 on the surface of the slide 200 includes, for example, the following processes: a patterned mask layer (e.g., photoresist or hard mask) is formed on the surface of the carrier 200 to expose regions where the first and second grooves U1 and U2 are to be formed, and then the carrier 200 is etched by dry etching or wet etching to form the first and second grooves U1 and U2 in the carrier 200. Fig. 6 shows an exemplary simulated planar pattern of first and second grooves U1 and U2 formed in the surface of the carrier 200. Referring to fig. 6, the first and second grooves U1 and U2 are exemplarily rectangular in cross section, but are not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the first and second grooves U1 and U2 may have circular, elliptical, triangular, square, pentagonal, hexagonal, or other cross-sectional shapes.
Referring to fig. 1 and 7, in an embodiment of the present invention, step S4 includes: the stack 100 is bonded to the carrier 200 with the first groove U1 opposite the first end TR1 of the thermally conductive groove TR and the second groove U2 opposite the second end TR2 of the thermally conductive groove TR. Fig. 8 shows a simulated cross-section of the bonded stack 100 and the carrier 200 and the thermally conductive trench TR.
The stack 100 and the carrier 200 are bonded, for example, using a fusion bonding (fusion bonding) method. Through bonding, the first groove U1 covers the first end TR1 of the heat conducting groove TR, so that the first groove U1 communicates with the first end TR1, and the second groove U1 covers the second end TR2 of the heat conducting groove TR, so that the second groove U1 communicates with the second end TR2.
Fig. 9 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a three-dimensional integrated device after forming solder bumps on a second surface of a stack according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 9, in this embodiment, in order to connect the stack 100 with the circuit substrate, solder bumps 110 are further formed on the second surface 100b of the stack 100, and the solder bumps 110 are connected with the circuit inside the stack 100.
Specifically, referring to fig. 9, after bonding the stack 100 and the carrier 200, the method of forming a three-dimensional integrated device according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include: supporting by using the carrier 200, forming a first back dielectric layer 105 on the back surface of the second substrate 103, and etching the first back dielectric layer 105 and the second substrate 103 to form a through silicon via penetrating through the second substrate 103, so that the through silicon via exposes the second interconnection structure 104; depositing a metal material (e.g., copper), forming a via (via) corresponding to the via, and forming a backside interconnect layer 106; depositing a second backside dielectric layer 107 and etching the second backside dielectric layer 107 to form a via exposing the backside interconnect layer 106; depositing a metal material (e.g., copper), forming via holes corresponding to the via holes to connect the backside interconnect layer 106, and forming pads 108; depositing a passivation layer 109 and etching the passivation layer 109 to form a via hole exposing the pad 108; solder bumps 110 are formed in the through holes that connect the pads 108. One or more solder bumps 110 may be formed on the second surface 100b, and may be specifically configured according to the integration requirement of the stack 100 and the circuit substrate.
Fig. 10 shows a cross section after the stack 100 is bonded to the circuit substrate 300. Referring to fig. 10, the stack 100 may then be bonded to a circuit substrate 300 to connect the circuits inside the stack 100 with the circuit substrate 300.
The circuit substrate 300 may include electronic components (e.g., logic elements) and interconnect structures that may provide further interconnect and support in a three-dimensional integrated device. The surface of the circuit substrate 300 is formed with pads (not shown), for example, and each solder bump 110 formed on the stack 100 is soldered to a corresponding pad on the circuit substrate 300 when the stack 100 and the circuit substrate 300 are bonded.
