제5도 내지 제8도는 본 발명에 의한 범프 형성방법을 설명하기 위한 단면도들.5 to 8 are cross-sectional views for explaining the bump forming method according to the present invention.
본 발명은 반도체장치의 범프 형성방법에 관한 것으로, 특히 Al전극의 표면에 선택적으로 형성되고 외부 배선층에 우수하게 접속시킬 수 있는 반도체장치의 칩 범프(Chip Bump)의 형성방법에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bump forming method of a semiconductor device, and more particularly, to a method of forming a chip bump of a semiconductor device which can be selectively formed on the surface of an Al electrode and can be connected to an external wiring layer excellently.
최근 전자기기의 소형화에 수반해서 IC(Integrated Cirouit)라든지 LSI(Large Scale Integration) 등과 같은 반도체칩은 고밀도 및 집적화가 급진적으로 진행되고 있는 한편, 반도체소자의 설치면적에 있어서도 전극 피치간의 축소화라든지 입출력단자의 갯수를 증대시켜야 된다는 경향이 있다. 또 전자식 탁상기라든지 IC카드에 있어서도 카드화에 대응하는 박형화가 요구된다.Recently, with the miniaturization of electronic devices, semiconductor chips such as IC (Integrated Cirouit) and LSI (Large Scale Integration) are rapidly progressing in high density and integration, while reducing the pitch between electrode pitches and input / output terminals in the installation area of semiconductor devices. There is a tendency to increase the number of. In addition, even in an electronic tabletop or an IC card, a thinning corresponding to cardization is required.
TAB(Tape Automated Bonding)방식이나 플립칩 방식 등과 같은 와이어리스(wireless) 본딩방식은 일괄접합과 위치맞춤 정도로부터 오는 신뢰성, 설치면적의 박형화 및 자동화적인 면에서 금후 LSI칩의 설치 기술의 주류가 되고 있다. 이 와이어리스 본딩방식에서는 일반적으로 LSI칩의 알루미늄전극상에 범프라 일컬어지는 금속돌기물이 형성되게 된다.Wireless bonding methods such as TAB (Tape Automated Bonding) and flip chip methods have become the mainstream of LSI chip installation technology in the future in terms of reliability, thinning of installation area and automation resulting from batch bonding and alignment accuracy. . In this wireless bonding method, bumpy metal projections are generally formed on an aluminum electrode of an LSI chip.
종래의 방법으로 형성되는 범프는 제1도 내지 제4도의 형성공정에 의해 형성된다.The bump formed by the conventional method is formed by the forming process of FIGS.
제1도를 참조하면, 반도체기판(100)상에 절연막(2)을 형성하고, 예컨대 알루미늄(Al)과 같은 도전물질을 증착시킨 다음 상기 도전물질을 패터닝하여 전극패드(4)를 형성한다. 이어서, 상기 전극패드(4) 위에 보호막용 물질을 증착시켜 패시베이션막(Passivation film; 6)을 형성한 다음, 상기 전극패드(4)의 일부가 노출되도록 상기 패시베이션막(6)을 패터닝한다.Referring to FIG. 1, an insulating film 2 is formed on a semiconductor substrate 100, a conductive material such as aluminum (Al) is deposited, and then the conductive material is patterned to form an electrode pad 4. Subsequently, a passivation film 6 is formed by depositing a protective film on the electrode pad 4, and then the passivation film 6 is patterned to expose a portion of the electrode pad 4.
제2도를 참조하면, 전극패드의 일부가 노출된 상태에서 상기 전극패드(4)의 표면에 형성된 자연산화막을 제거하기 위하여 고진공장치에서 RF식각 방식을 이용하여 상기 산화막을 제거한다. 이어서, 상기 산화막이 제거된 즉시 범프형성에 대비한 접착용 금속막(8), 장벽용 금속막(10) 및 도금용 금(Au)막(12)을 스퍼터링(sputtering)방식에 의해 각각 200Å∼500Å, 1,000Å∼3,000Å, 500Å∼2,000Å 정도의 증착시킨다.Referring to FIG. 2, in order to remove a natural oxide film formed on the surface of the electrode pad 4 while a part of the electrode pad is exposed, the oxide film is removed by using an RF etching method in a high vacuum apparatus. Subsequently, as soon as the oxide film was removed, the adhesive metal film 8, the barrier metal film 10, and the plating gold (Au) film 12 prepared for bump formation were each sputtered by 200 kPa. The deposition is performed at 500 mV, 1,000 mV to 3,000 mV and about 500 mV to 2,000 mV.
제3도를 참조하면, 전해도금영역을 한정하기 위하여 결과물의 전면에 20㎛∼30㎛ 정도의 두께로 포토레지스트(14)를 도포한 다음, 노광 및 현상공정 등을 거쳐 전해도금영역상의 포토레지스트를 제거한다. 이어서, 상기 포토레지스트가 제거된 공간에 전해도금방식을 이용하여 Au범프(16)를 형성한다.Referring to FIG. 3, in order to limit the electroplating region, the photoresist 14 is applied to the entire surface of the resultant with a thickness of about 20 µm to 30 µm, and then subjected to exposure and development processes, and the like, on the electroplating region. Remove it. Subsequently, Au bumps 16 are formed in the space where the photoresist is removed by using an electroplating method.
제4도을 참조하면, 남아있는 포토레지스트를 제거한 다음, 상기 Au범프(16)를 식각마스크로 하여 스퍼터링된 하부의 막질들, 즉 Au막(12), 장벽막(10) 및 접착막(8)을 차례로 이방성 식각한다. 이때, 상기 막질들의 식각시 할로겐화 가스와 염소계 가스를 적절히 혼합하여 실시함으로서 상기 범프의 상단표면에 미세한 V자 모양의 홈(18)을 형성하도록 한다. 이어서, 각 층간의 접착력을 향상시키기 위하여 250℃∼350℃ 정도의 온도에서 1시간∼2시간 정도 열처리를 실시한다.Referring to FIG. 4, after the remaining photoresist is removed, the lower film materials sputtered with the Au bumps 16 as an etch mask, that is, the Au film 12, the barrier film 10, and the adhesive film 8 are removed. Is then anisotropically etched. At this time, the etching of the film quality is performed by appropriately mixing the halogenated gas and chlorine-based gas to form a fine V-shaped groove 18 on the upper surface of the bump. Subsequently, in order to improve the adhesive force between each layer, heat processing is performed for about 1 hour-2 hours at the temperature of about 250 degreeC-350 degreeC.
상술한 종래의 칩범프 형성방법에 따르면, ILB(Inner Lead Bonding)후 범프의 상단부가 옆으로 처지는 경향이 있으며, 범프의 하단부에 형성되어 있는 막질에 크랙(crack)을 유발할 수 있다. 또한, ILB시 범프의 상단부에 형성되는 V자 모양의 미세한 홈(18)은 그 크기와 모양등을 리드표면의 상황에 맞게 적절하게 대처하기가 어렵다는 문제점이 있다.According to the conventional chip bump formation method described above, the upper end portion of the bump tends to sag sideways after the inner lead bonding (ILB), and may cause cracks in the film formed on the lower end portion of the bump. In addition, the V-shaped fine groove 18 formed at the upper end of the bump during ILB has a problem that it is difficult to properly deal with the size and shape of the bump according to the situation of the lead surface.
따라서, 본 발명의 목적은 상기한 종래의 문제점을 해결할 수 있는 칩범프 형성방법을 제공하는데 있다.Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a chip bump forming method that can solve the above-mentioned conventional problems.

One photoresist pattern 14 is formed. Subsequently, the first Au bumps 16 are formed in the space opened by the photoresist pattern 14 by using an electroplating method using the underlying metal layer as a cathode.
제7도를 참조하면, 1차적으로 형성된 상기 제1Au범프(16)의 상부에 포토레지스트를 제6도의 경우에 비해 비교적 얇게, 즉 1㎛∼15㎛ 정도의 두께로 도포한 후 노광 및 현상 등의 공정을 거쳐 상기 1차 Au범프(16)의 상부가 노출되도록 하는 제2포토레지스트 패턴(18)을 형성한다.Referring to FIG. 7, the photoresist is first applied to the upper portion of the first Au bump 16 formed relatively thinner than that of FIG. 6, that is, 1 μm to 15 μm, and then exposed and developed.
