In the case of a general through silicon via (TSV) technique, there is a problem that an electrical loss is very large at a high frequency due to a lossy characteristic of silicon.

There is a disadvantage that a contact process for connection with the additional forming electrode becomes difficult. This metal contact problem causes problems such as poor electrical connection and electrode pattern alignment in the future process, which leads to a decrease in mass productivity.

In general, the primary insulating layer is silicon dioxide, which has a limited thickness within a few microns and is generally less than 1 micron.

The prior art discloses the use of an insulating material such as polyimide for filling holes with an insulating layer.
In general, a spin coating method is used to charge a hole by using a liquid material such as polyimide.
According to the spin coating method, voids are generated in the process of filling a hole having a deep hole, that is, a high aspect ratio with an insulator, and problems such as flatness at the hole, edge, and surface are uneven And the like. In general, the liquid polymer has a problem that its price is very high.
On the other hand, if a low-viscosity polymer is applied to the spin coating, the void problem can be solved. However, as the spin speed of the spin coater is increased during the coating process, the polymer may not be able to fill the hole, When the viscosity of the polymer is high, there is a problem that voids may be formed in the inside of the deep hole, particularly in the bottom surface of the hole.
In addition to the spin coating method, a spray method or the like can be used for filling the insulator, but it is difficult to control and the thickness of the insulator layer to be formed may be uneven.
However, when the filling insulating
The lamination technology proposed in this embodiment is a technique which is not used in a general semiconductor process and is originally used in a PCB lamination process. Until now, few cases have been applied to semiconductor product technology.
This lamination technique is a technique for uniformly forming an insulating layer on a substrate surface by placing an epoxy sheet on a substrate in a vacuum or a standby state, for example, by increasing the temperature and applying pressure. At this time, the sheet is softly solid at room temperature, but weakly melted at a point of time when pressure is applied at the former temperature, and flowability is improved, so that the fine holes formed in the substrate can be effectively filled.
This lamination technology is very simple in process and low in material cost, which enables a low-cost process as a whole. Also, when the lamination process is conducted in a vacuum state, the flowability of the resin is improved in the gap, so that a small hole can be effectively charged so that voids do not occur.
