Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for producing modules for electronic and / or optical and / or fluidic applications, starting from at least one wafer, on the surface of which microelectronic components are provided in a regular and rectangular arrangement, with electrical contacts in the edge area of the respective component, optical connections are also arranged on the surface of the respective component.
- Microelectronic components such as ICs, transistors, diodes, photodiodes etc. are produced on semiconductor wafers.
- the components usually arranged on round wafers have their electrical or optical functions on the surface at the end of production, the electrical contacts being on the edge of the component. There is an area between the components that is used to separate the components. The separation is done by wafer sawing or by laser processing. After being separated, the microelectronic components, the so-called chips, lie on a bluetape and are processed from here using the so-called "pick and place process". In the simplest case, the components are placed on a lead frame and electrically contacted with wire bonders. However, they can also be merged into modules using the 3D CSP process. No wire bonders are used here, rather the electrical connections are made using a PVD process, all the necessary contacts being made in one process step, which leads to a cost reduction compared to the serial wire bonders.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of carrying out a method of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that the workflows can be carried out more precisely and in a time-saving manner when the components are further processed.
- the invention proposes, according to the characterizing part of claim 1, that by means of a photopolymerization process (RMPD mask process) dielectric packing structures firmly connected to the wafer in layers around the respective components and / or above the components for all these components are generated in parallel and at the same time, the electrical and / or optical contacts for each component likewise being produced, after which the modules thus produced are finally separated by cutting the wafer in the area between the individual modules after all the connections have been completed.
- RMPD mask process photopolymerization process
- the method according to the invention takes advantage of the large order of the wafer (all components are in equidistant positions with accuracies in the nanometer range), which is maintained during further processing of the components until the modules are finally completed.
- the order remains intact and the contacts (both electrical, optical and fluidic) are made in a network. Only then are the completed modules separated.
- the layered structure of the modules enveloping the microelectronic components is known, for example, from DE 1 982 6971 C2.
- a single microelectronic component is surrounded by a housing in the method described in this document, channels being simultaneously generated from the connection surfaces to the surface of the module.
- the components still firmly arranged on the wafer are encased in parallel and at the same time, and all electrical, optical and also fluidic connections to the lateral and / or upper surface of the modules are produced in three dimensions.
- This procedure results in the modules being smaller and can be produced in parallel in large numbers.
- the serial process steps of the pick and place are eliminated.
- Higher precision can be achieved with optical contacts, in particular, because the positioning tolerances are eliminated.
- the dielectric structures generated around the microelectronic components arranged in the fixed wafer composite have different tasks. On the one hand, they serve for the electrical and / or optical insulation of the respective component.
- a base plate can first be attached to the side of the wafer facing away from the components, either by gluing or polymerizing.
- openings and / or channels for the electrical and optical connections or for the capillary line of liquids be left out in the layered structure of the packing structure, these connection structures running three-dimensionally.
- metallic areas are created on the surface of the packaging structure or on corresponding layers when the packaging structure is built up by vapor deposition, which, according to claim 5, represent conductor tracks leading from the tiny connections (pads) present in / on the component to contact areas lead that have a larger area on the side of the component than the connections existing in / on the component, which simplifies subsequent soldering.
- lift-off masks means that the areas of the conductor tracks or contact areas are left out in the layer-by-layer structure and are subsequently vapor-coated with metal, as proposed in claim 9.
- layer by layer and step by step all components arranged on the wafer are simultaneously provided with the appropriate connections, be it electrical, optical (optical fibers) or also fluid (for capillary flow of liquids into and out of the module, for example for analysis tasks ).
- connection structures mentioned above can also be generated above the component composite, as proposed in claim 6.
- one of the layers above the respective component is designed as a cavity. This is particularly advantageous if the components are RF chips. The cavities then reduce the damping of the electromagnetic waves on the chip.
- claim 8 proposes that an antenna be arranged above the last layer on the packaging structure, which antenna is connected to corresponding electrical connections in / on the component by means of metallization. This is also achieved, for example, by using a lift-off mask.
- 1 and 2 show sections of a wafer on which microelectronic components are arranged; 3: cross section through a wafer which is glued to a floor;
- Connection structures 8: Separation of the modules created according to FIGS. 5-7;
- Fig. 9-1 1 step-by-layer and layer-by-layer structure for producing optical windows above the component;
- Fig. 13 and 14 Generation of microfluidic channels for the capillary transport of liquids
- Fig. 15-18 electrical connection structures generated by layer-by-layer construction and use of a lift-off mask that lead to the outside of the module.
- FIG. 1 shows a round wafer with microelectronic components 2 arranged thereon, such as ICs, for example, and is generally provided with the reference symbol 1.
- FIG. 2 shows an enlarged illustration from FIG. 1. As can be seen more clearly from FIG. 2, the components 2 are regularly arranged at defined distances 3 from one another. FIG. 2 also shows that electrical connections 4 (pads) are arranged on the components 2.
- FIG. 3 relates to a cross section through the wafer 1 on which a component 2 is arranged, a base 5 being attached to the underside of the wafer 1 (either by gluing or by polymerization).
- FIG. 4 shows the wafer 1 with a plurality of adjacent components 2 on the base 5, reference number 6 denoting the point at which two components 2 are separated from one another after the machining process has ended.
- FIGS. 5-7 show the process steps in which the component 2 is encased layer by layer by means of a photo polymerization process, the shell 7 thus produced having openings at the locations under which the pads 4 are arranged.
- a lift-off mask 8 is placed over the covering layer 7, which has recesses which, on the one hand, leave the pads 4 free and, furthermore, further areas in which, as shown in FIG. 7, electrical conductor tracks are deposited by metallic vapor deposition 9 are generated.
- the lift-off mask 8 is then removed again and the layer-by-layer construction can be continued.
- FIG. 8 shows the construction of the module 1 has ended due to the generation of the electrical conductor tracks 9, it is detached from the wafer composite on the base 5 by sawing or cutting. This is shown in FIG. 8.
- FIGS. 9-11 show the method steps in which a further structure 11 is built up above the wafer 1, openings 11 for optical waveguides in the structure 11, which are connected to lasers or diode connections, being omitted and being used as Recordings 13 serve for the optical fiber.
- a lift-off mask 14 is placed according to FIG. 10, which leaves the openings 12 free, so that in a further process step, electrically conductive surfaces 15 are again generated using metal vapor deposition.
- the resulting modules 2 with the structure 11 arranged thereon are separated from one another at 16.
- FIGS. 13 and 16 show a further possible variant of the method, in which 17 channels 18 are generated in a further structure, which are intended to serve for the capillary transport of liquids. With the aid of these channels 18, the resulting chip analysis can be carried out.
- the channel 18 is provided with a layer 19 of the structure 17 with a cover 19, in which openings 20 are left, which serve as inlet and outlet connections for the liquid to be examined.
- modules 2 are separated from one another, as shown in FIG.
- modules 2, already isolated at 16 are produced by the aforementioned method, via which a cavity 24 was generated, which is covered by a further layer 22 and delimited by walls 21, an antenna 23 being evaporated on layer 22 which is connected to the metallic side walls 15 'via conductor tracks also produced by metallic vapor deposition.
- the cavity 24 is used, for example in the case of RF chips, to achieve less damping of the electromagnetic waves on the chip.
