Description

本発明の実施形態は、半導体装置および半導体装置の製造方法に関する。
従来、集積回路が形成された複数の半導体チップを積層し、各半導体チップをTSV(Through Silicon Via)によって互いに電気的に接続することにより、半導体装置の専有面積を小さくする技術がある。TSVは、一方の面側に集積回路が形成された半導体基板を厚さ方向に貫通して集積回路まで到達する貫通孔を形成し、貫通孔に導電性部材を埋め込むことによって形成される。
かかるTSVは、半導体チップの小型化および集積回路の高集積化に伴い、半導体基板の厚さ方向に対して垂直な断面の面積が微小化する傾向にある。このように、TSVの断面が微小化すると、TSVと集積回路との間の接触抵抗が増大するという問題が生じる。
米国特許出願公開第2013/099349号明細書

以下に添付図面を参照して、実施形態にかかる半導体装置および半導体装置の製造方法を詳細に説明する。なお、この実施形態により本発明が限定されるものではない。
図1は、実施形態に係る半導体装置を示す断面模式図である。図1に示すように、実施形態に係る半導体装置1は、例えば、シリコンウェハ等の半導体基板2における一方の面(以下、「表面」と記載する)側に設けられる集積回路3と、半導体基板2を厚さ方向に貫通して集積回路3と接続されるビア4とを備える。
集積回路3は、半導体基板2の表面に形成される層間絶縁膜30の内部に設けられる。層間絶縁膜30は、例えば、酸化シリコンによって形成される。かかる集積回路3は、例えば、半導体メモリおよび多層配線を含むLSI(Large Scale Integration)である。なお、図1には、集積回路3における多層配線の部分を選択的に図示している。
また、集積回路3の表面には、パッシベーション膜51と保護膜52とが積層される。パッシベーション膜51は、例えば、酸化シリコンまたは窒化シリコンによって形成される。保護膜52は、例えば、PET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)またはポリイミドなどの樹脂によって形成される。
保護膜52の表面における所定位置には、上部電極パッド54が設けられる。上部電極パッド54は、例えば、金によって形成される。上部電極パッド54と集積回路3とは、保護膜52、パッシベーション膜51、および層間絶縁膜30を貫通する上部電極53によって接続される。上部電極53は、例えば、ニッケルによって形成される。
ビア4は、半導体基板2を貫通するように設けられ、半導体装置1を多段に積層する場合に、下段の半導体装置1が備える集積回路3と上段の半導体装置1が備える集積回路3とを電気的に接続する貫通電極(TSV:Through Silicon Via)である。かかるビア4は、例えば、銅によって形成される。
ビア4における半導体基板2の裏面側に露出した端部には、下段の半導体装置1の上部電極パッド54と導通を取るためのバンプ55が設けられる。バンプ55は、例えば、はんだによって形成される。
ここで、一般的なビアは、半導体基板を貫通する円柱状の導電性部材である。このため、円柱状のビアは、半導体装置の小型化および集積回路の高集積化が進んだ場合、径が小さくなり、集積回路との接触面積が小さくなるので、集積回路との接触抵抗が増大する。
そこで、本実施形態に係るビア4は、集積回路3との接触部42における半導体基板2の厚さ方向に対して垂直な方向の寸法が、半導体基板2を貫通する貫通部41における半導体基板2の厚さ方向に対して垂直な方向の寸法よりも大きくなるように形成される。
かかるビア4によれば、半導体装置1の小型化、集積回路3の高集積化に伴って、貫通部41が細く形成されても、貫通部41よりも断面積が大きな接触部42によって集積回路3との接続が可能となるので、集積回路3との間の接触抵抗を低減することができる。
また、ビア4の接触部42は、貫通部41の上端から半導体基板2の面と平行な方向へせり出す形状であるので、ビア4に引っ張り力が加えられる場合に、楔として機能する。したがって、ビア4によれば、引っ張り力に対する強度が向上する。
また、半導体装置1が備える集積回路3は、ビア4との接触部31に金属シリサイドを用いる。これにより、ビア4を形成する工程で、半導体基板2を貫通する貫通孔をエッチングによって形成する場合に、接触部31をエッチングストッパとして機能させることができる。したがって、半導体装置1によれば、ビア4形成用の貫通孔を形成する場合に、オーバーエッチングの発生を防止することができる。
次に、図2〜図5を参照して、実施形態に係る半導体装置1の製造工程について説明する。図2〜図5は、実施形態に係る半導体装置1の製造工程を示す断面模式図である。
半導体装置1を製造する場合には、まず、図2(a)に示すように、半導体基板2の表面側に集積回路3を形成する。例えば、集積回路3の多層配線を形成する場合、半導体基板2の表面に酸化シリコン膜を成膜し、酸化シリコン膜に接触部31を形成するための凹部をフォトリソグラフィーによって形成し、凹部内にポリシリコンを埋め込む。その後ポリシリコン上にニッケル層を形成し、加熱工程を経てニッケルシリサイドとし、接触部31を形成する。
なお、接触部31の材料は、ニッケルシリサイドに限定されるものではなく、後述のエッチングを行う際に、エッチングストッパとして機能する材料であれば、任意の金属(例えば、タングステンなど)または、任意の金属シリサイドであってもよい。
その後、酸化シリコン膜を成膜する工程、フォトリソグラフィーによって酸化シリコン膜をパターニングする工程、パターニングによって形成される配線パターンの凹部をバリアメタルによって被覆して導電性部材を埋め込む工程を順次繰り返す。
これにより、層間絶縁膜30の内部に、層間絶縁膜30との界面がバリアメタル35によって被覆された第1配線層32、第2配線層33、および第3配線層34が形成される。その後、層間絶縁膜30の上面に、例えば、酸化シリコンまたは窒化シリコンを用いたパッシベーション膜51を形成する。
ここで、第1配線層32には、例えば、タングステンを用いる。第2配線層33には、例えば、銅を用いる。第3配線層34には、アルミニウムを用いる。なお、第1配線層32、第2配線層33、および第3配線層34には、導電性部材であれば、上記した金属以外の金属を用いてもよい。
また、バリアメタル35には、例えば、チタンナイトライドまたはニッケルナイトライドを用いる。なお、バリアメタル35には、第1配線層32、第2配線層33、および第3配線層34から層間絶縁膜30への導電性部材の拡散を抑制可能な材料であれば、上記した材料以外の任意の材料を用いてもよい。
続いて、パッシベーション膜51の上面に、例えば、PETまたはポリイミドなどの樹脂によって保護膜52を形成した後、保護膜52、パッシベーション膜51、および層間絶縁膜30を貫通して集積回路3まで到達する貫通孔を形成する。その後、図2(b)に示すように、貫通孔に、例えば、ニッケルを埋め込むことによって、上部電極53を形成する。なお、上部電極53は、導電性部材であれば、ニッケル以外の金属を用いてもよい。
その後、上部電極53の上部露出面上に、例えば、アルミニウムを用いて上部電極パッド54を形成する。なお、上部電極パッド54には、導電性部材であれば、アルミニウム以外の金属を用いてもよい。
続いて、図2(c)に示すように、上部電極パッド54および保護膜52の上面に接着剤61を塗布した後、接着剤61の上面に支持基板62を貼着する。支持基板62には、例えば、シリコン基板またはガラス基板を用いる。
その後、図3(a)に示すように、図2(c)に示す構造体の天地を反転させ、半導体基板2の裏面側から半導体基板2を厚さ方向に貫通して集積回路3の接触部31まで到達する貫通孔7を形成する。
かかる貫通孔7は、例えば、半導体基板2の裏面から接触部31へ向けて異方性のプラズマエッチング(以下、「第1のエッチング」と記載する)を行うことによって形成される。このとき、貫通孔7は、前述したように、接触部31がエッチングストッパとなるニッケルシリサイドによって形成されているので、接触部31の上面よりも深くまで形成されにくい。また、第1のエッチングのエッチング量を減らすため、第1のエッチングに先立って半導体基板2を裏面側から研磨し、半導体基板2の厚さを薄くしておいてもよい。
続いて、図3(b)に示すように、貫通孔7の集積回路3に到達する到達部72を拡張する処理を行う。具体的には、第1のエッチングとは処理条件の異なるプラズマエッチング(以下、「第2のエッチング」と記載する)を行うことによって、到達部72を拡張する。
例えば、第2のエッチングでは、エッチング対象へ衝突させるイオンを加速させるためのバイアス電圧を第1のエッチングのときよりも高く設定する。または、第2のエッチングでは、エッチャントガスの濃度を第1のエッチングのときよりも高く設定する。若しくは、第2のエッチングでは、プラズマ化したエッチャントガスのイオンエネルギーを第1のエッチングのときよりも高く設定したり、エッチャントガスの混合比を変更する。また、第2のエッチングでは、第1のエッチングよりも長い時間エッチングを行う。
上記した複数の処理条件変更のうち、いずれか一つまたは複数の処理条件変更を行うことによって、貫通孔7の到達部72では、半導体基板2の厚さ方向へのエッチングが進みにくく、半導体基板2の面方向と平行な方向へのエッチングが進む。
これにより、貫通孔7の到達部72における半導体基板2の厚さ方向に対して垂直な方向の寸法が、半導体基板2を貫通する貫通部71における半導体基板2の厚さ方向に対して垂直な方向の寸法よりも大きくなるように、到達部72が拡張される。その後、図3(c)に示すように、貫通孔7の内周面および半導体基板2の裏面を酸化膜81によって被覆する。
このように、第1のエッチング後に、エッチングの処理条件を変更するだけで、第1のエッチングを行った処理装置をそのまま使用し、第2のエッチングを行うことによって、図3(b)に示すような形状の貫通孔7を形成することが可能である。
続いて、図4(a)に示すように、貫通孔7における底部の酸化膜をエッチングによって除去することによって接触部31の上面を露出させた後、貫通孔7の内周面および半導体基板2の裏面側をバリアメタル82によって被覆する。
バリアメタル82には、例えば、チタンナイトライドまたはニッケルナイトライドの被膜を用い、スパッタによって形成される。なお、バリアメタル82は、後に貫通孔7へ埋め込まれる金属が半導体基板2側へ拡散することを抑制可能な材料であれば、上記した材料以外の任意の材料によって形成されてもよい。
その後、図4(b)に示すように、バリアメタル82によって裏面側が被覆された半導体基板2の裏面側に、レジスト83を塗布し、フォトリソグラフィーによってレジスト83をパターニングする。このとき、貫通孔7における半導体基板2裏面側の開口位置に、貫通孔7よりも開口面積が大きな孔が形成されるように、レジスト83をパターニングする。
続いて、図4(c)に示すように、貫通孔7の内部へ導電性部材84を埋め込むことによってビア4を形成する。導電性部材84は、例えば、銅を用いる。かかるビア4は、スパッタまたはメッキによって形成される。
これにより、ビア4は、集積回路3との接触部42における半導体基板2の厚さ方向に対して垂直な方向の寸法が、半導体基板2を貫通する貫通部41における半導体基板2の厚さ方向に対して垂直な方向の寸法よりも大きくなるように形成される。その後、ビア4における半導体基板2裏面側の上面に、例えば、はんだを用いてバンプ55を形成する。
続いて、図5(a)に示すように、レジスト83およびレジスト83下のバリアメタル82を剥離し、さらに、図5(b)に示すように、支持基板62および接着剤61を剥離する。そして、図5(b)に示す構造体の天地を反転させることによって、図1に示す半導体装置1が形成される。なお、かかる半導体装置1は、装置単位にダイシングされて積層された後、樹脂などによってモールドされて製品となる。
上述したように、実施形態に係る半導体装置は、半導体基板を貫通して集積回路に接続されるビアを備える。そして、ビアは、集積回路との接触部における半導体基板の厚さ方向と垂直な方向の寸法が、半導体基板を貫通する貫通部における半導体基板の厚さ方向と垂直な方向の寸法よりも大きい。したがって、実施形態に係る半導体装置によれば、ビアと集積回路との接触抵抗を低減することができる。
また、実施形態の半導体装置では、ビアに引っ張り力が加えられる場合に、ビアにおける集積回路との接触部が楔として機能する。したがって、実施形態に係るビアによれば、引っ張り力に対する強度が向上する。
なお、上述した実施形態では、ビア4の貫通部41および接触部42における半導体基板2の厚さ方向に対して垂直な断面の形状について特に言及しなかったが、ビア4の断面形状は、円形であってもよく、矩形や楕円であっても構わない。
また、上述した実施形態では、バンプ55の寸法がビア4の貫通部41における半導体基板2の厚さ方向に対して垂直な方向の寸法より大きい場合について説明したが、貫通部41の寸法に合わせて、バンプ55の寸法を小さくしてもよい。これにより、半導体基板2の裏面におけるバンプ54の専有面積を小さくすることができる。
また、上述した実施形態では、ビア4の貫通部41が筒状である場合について説明したが、貫通部41は、接触部42から半導体基板2の裏面側へ向うにつれて細くなるようなテーパー形状に形成されてもよい。テーパー形状の貫通部41は、例えば、第1のエッチングを行う期間に、適宜、エッチングの処理条件を変更することによって形成が可能である。
このように、ビア4の貫通部41を半導体基板2の裏面側へ向うにつれて細くなるようなテーパー形状に形成し、最も細い端部の寸法に合わせてさらに小さくしたバンプ55を設けることにより、半導体基板2の裏面におけるバンプ54の専有面積をさらに小さくすることができる。
