Description

半導體裝置之製造方法
[相關申請]
本申請案享有以日本專利申請2014-185632號(申請日:2014年9月11日)為基礎申請之優先權。本申請案藉由參照該基礎申請而包含基礎申請之全部內容。
本發明之實施形態係關於一種半導體裝置之製造方法。
對於使用氮化鎵之裝置而言,使裝置內之半導體基板儘量薄化而謀求裝置之小型化正成為一種趨勢。半導體基板之薄化例如係藉由背面研削(backgrind)而進行。
但是,於使用矽基板作為氮化鎵之基板之情形時,由於矽之晶格常數與氮化鎵之晶格常數之失配,故而矽基板內部存在應力。若於此種狀況下對半導體基板進行背面研削,則有如下情況:因藉由背面研削而產生之研削痕跡,導致矽基板產生較大翹曲。並且,若該翹曲超過限度,則有矽基板破裂之可能性。
本發明所欲解決之問題在於提供一種抑制半導體基板之翹曲之半導體裝置之製造方法。
本發明之實施形態之半導體裝置之製造方法係對具備具有第1面與第2面之半導體基板及設置於上述半導體基板之上述第1面上之含氮化鎵層,且厚度為d1之上述半導體基板之上述第2面進行研削,其後 以上述研削時之削去量之1/2~1/50之量對上述第2面進行研磨,其後以上述研削時之削去量之1/200~1/5000之量對上述第2面進行蝕刻,而使上述半導體基板之厚度小於等於上述d1之5分之1。

以下,一面參照圖式一面對實施形態進行說明。於以下之說明中,對相同之構件附上相同符號,且對於說明過一次之構件,適當省略其說明。
圖1係表示實施形態之半導體裝置之製造方法的流程圖。
例如,於設置於半導體基板之上之含氮化鎵層之表面形成第1電極、第2電極及第3電極(步驟S10)。此處,半導體基板為矽基板。作為一例,第1電極~第3電極對應於高電子遷移率電晶體之源極、汲極及閘極。又,並不限於高電子遷移率電晶體,亦可為MOSFET(Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor,金屬-氧化物半導體場效應電晶體)之源極、汲極及閘極。
繼而,對半導體基板之背面進行研削、研磨及蝕刻,而使半導體基板之厚度小於等於5分之1(步驟S20)。
繼而,於進行過研削、研磨及蝕刻之半導體基板之背面形成導電層(步驟S30)。
繼而,藉由切割而將半導體基板、含氮化鎵層及導電層進行分離(步驟S40)。
以下,具體地說明圖1所表示之流程圖。
首先,於對實施形態之半導體裝置之製造過程進行說明之前,對研削或研磨半導體基板之加工機進行說明。
圖2係表示研削或研磨實施形態之半導體基板之加工機之主要部分的模式性立體圖。
如圖2所示,向載置於研磨膠帶91上之半導體基板10之背面10r抵壓對該背面10r進行研削(背面研削(B.G.))或研磨(拋光研磨(P.G.))之加工機90。加工機90或半導體基板10可向箭頭之方向旋轉。
加工機90並非覆蓋半導體基板10之整面,例如加工機90之直徑 被設計大於等於半導體基板10之半徑。於加工機90與半導體基板10之間介置金剛石等研削(研磨)粒,藉由加工機90之旋轉或半導體基板10之旋轉而對半導體基板10之背面10r進行研削或研磨。
此處,利用研削之半導體基板10之去除速度快於利用研磨之半導體基板10之去除速度。又,研磨時所使用之研磨粒之平均粒徑小於研削中所使用之研削粒之平均粒徑。換言之,研磨係研削之所謂精加工處理。
對實施形態之半導體裝置之製造過程進行說明。
圖3(a)~圖7(b)係表示實施形態之半導體裝置之製造過程的模式圖,各圖(a)係表示半導體基板之背面的模式性俯視圖,各圖(b)係表示圖(a)之A-A'線之剖面之模式性剖視圖。
例如,如圖3(a)、(b)所示,於具有第1面(以下,例如稱為表面10s)與第2面(以下,例如稱為背面10r)之半導體基板10之表面10s使含氮化鎵層30磊晶成長(epitaxial growth)。此處,含氮化鎵層30具有複數層(下述)。又,將該階段之半導體基板10之厚度設為d1(例如,1mm)。含氮化鎵層30之厚度為10μm。
繼而,於含氮化鎵層30之上形成第1電極(以下,例如稱為源極電極50)、第2電極(以下,例如稱為汲極電極51)及第3電極(以下,例如稱為閘極電極52)。此處,汲極電極51係與源極電極50並排,且閘極電極52被配置於源極電極50與汲極電極51之間。於閘極電極52與含氮化鎵層30之間設置有閘極絕緣膜53。源極電極50、汲極電極51及閘極電極52之組合可設置複數個。
再者,亦可於形成源極電極50、汲極電極51及閘極電極52之後,形成被覆半導體基板10及含氮化鎵層30之表面的鈍化膜(未圖示)。又,亦可形成分別電性連接於源極電極50、汲極電極51及閘極電極52之電極墊(未圖示)。
繼而,如圖4(a)、(b)所示,使用加工機90對半導體基板10之背面10r進行研削。
研削例如可使用JIS標準之粒度# 1500之研削粒(例如,金剛石研削粒)而進行。例如將金剛石研削粒(固定研削粒)固定於加工機90之與半導體基板10之抵接面,而對半導體基板10之背面10r進行研削。
研削中,亦可將油等溶劑、醇等有機溶劑、水等溶劑介置於加工機90與半導體基板10之間。或者,亦可不使用該等溶劑而進行研削。
對半導體基板10進行研削後,於半導體基板10之背面10r形成與加工機90之旋轉方向對應之研削痕跡10ca。若於半導體基板10上形成研削痕跡10ca,則對半導體基板10施加之應力之一部分被釋放,會導致半導體基板10翹曲。
此處,於翹曲之程度超過限度之情形時,有半導體基板10發生破裂之情況。或者,若將形成有研削痕跡10ca之半導體基板10設置於成膜裝置等別的處理裝置內,則有半導體基板10發生破裂之情況。又,即便半導體基板10未破裂,使用殘留有研削痕跡10ca之半導體基板10之裝置之抗彎強度亦會降低。
因此,於實施形態中,其後進行使形成於半導體基板10上之研削痕跡10ca減少之處理。
例如,如圖5(a)、(b)所示,使較研削時更細之金剛石研磨粒介置於加工機90與半導體基板10之間,而對半導體基板10之背面10r進行研磨。
例如,使金剛石研磨粒游離於背面10r之上,對半導體基板10之背面10r進行研磨。或者,藉由化學機械研磨法(CMP)而對半導體基板10之背面10r進行研磨。
該研磨時之背面10r之削去量少於研削時之削去量,例如設為研 削時之削去量之1/2~1/50。
藉由該研磨處理,於半導體基板10之背面10r殘留研削痕跡10ca之深度變得更淺之研削痕跡10cb。又,與形成有研削痕跡10ca之情況相比,半導體基板10之翹曲程度得以緩和。
繼而,如圖6(a)、(b)所示,對半導體基板10之背面10r進行蝕刻。例如,利用包含碳、硫及氟之至少1種之氣體而對半導體基板10之背面10r進行乾式蝕刻。
或者,利用包含氟之溶液,對半導體基板10之背面10r進行濕式蝕刻。
該蝕刻時之背面10r之削去量少於研磨時之削去量,例如設為研削時之削去量之1/200~1/5000。
藉由該蝕刻處理,殘留於半導體基板10之背面10r處之研削痕跡10cb進一步減少。又,與形成有研削痕跡10cb之情況相比,半導體基板10之翹曲程度得以緩和。即,與僅進行過研削處理之半導體基板10相比,實施形態之半導體基板10之研削痕跡較少而變得不易破裂。
例如,結束圖4(a)、(b)~圖6(a)、(b)之處理之後,半導體基板10之厚度變得小於等於當初厚度d1之5分之1。例如,於圖3(a)、(b)所示之階段,半導體基板10之厚度為1mm之情形時,結束圖4(a)、(b)~圖6(a)、(b)之處理之後,半導體基板10之厚度變得小於等於200μm。
結束圖4(a)、(b)~圖6(a)、(b)之處理後之半導體基板10之厚度不限於小於等於200μm。
例如,將結束圖4(a)、(b)~圖6(a)、(b)之處理後之半導體基板10之厚度、與含氮化鎵層30之厚度相加而獲得之厚度係半導體基板之直徑每1英吋小於等於50μm。例如於使用直徑8英吋之半導體基板10之情形時,結束圖4(a)、(b)~圖6(a)、(b)之處理後之半導體基板10與含氮化鎵層30之厚度變得小於等於400μm。
或者,將結束圖4(a)、(b)~圖6(a)、(b)之處理後之半導體基板10之厚度、與含氮化鎵層30之厚度相加而獲得之厚度係半導體基板之直徑每1英吋小於等於25μm。例如於使用直徑8英吋之半導體基板10之情形時,結束圖4(a)、(b)~圖6(a)、(b)之處理後之半導體基板10與含氮化鎵層30之厚度變得小於等於200μm。
又,結束圖4(a)、(b)~圖6(a)、(b)之處理後之半導體基板10之背面10r之表面粗糙度Ra大於等於0.006μm且小於等於0.008μm。
又,於將結束圖4(a)、(b)~圖6(a)、(b)之處理後之半導體基板10載置於平坦之支持台(未圖示)上之情形時,半導體基板10之中心距支持台之高度、與半導體基板10之邊緣距支持台之高度的差變得小於等於150μm。
繼而,如圖7(a)、(b)所示,於半導體基板10之背面10r形成導電層55。導電層55於安裝半導體基板10時可用作焊接用之電極。或者,導電層55可用作使半導體基板10之背面10r側之電位穩定之接地層,進而可用作散熱體。
圖8(a)及圖8(b)係表示實施形態之半導體裝置之製造過程的模式圖,圖8(a)係表示單片化後之半導體基板之背面的模式性俯視圖,圖8(b)係表示單片化後之半導體裝置之剖面的模式性剖視圖。
繼而,如圖8(a)、(b)所示,每包含源極電極50、汲極電極51及閘極電極52為一組將半導體基板10、含氮化鎵層30及導電層55進行分離。例如,沿著切割線10d,藉由分割處理而將半導體基板10、含氮化鎵層30及導電層55進行分離。由此,形成經單片化之多個半導體晶片1。其後,使用黏晶(die bonding)、打線接合(wire bonding)及密封樹脂而進行半導體晶片1之封裝化。
如上所述,於實施形態中,對支持含氮化鎵層30之矽基板等半導體基板10之背面10r進行研削、研磨及蝕刻。由此,半導體基板10 之研削痕跡減少,而抑制半導體基板10之翹曲。其結果為,半導體基板10變得不易破裂。
又,於實施形態中,由於可使半導體基板10之厚度變薄,故而可謀求半導體晶片1之薄型化。由此,半導體封裝之厚度亦變薄。又,由於使研削痕跡減少,故而半導體晶片1之抗彎強度增加。
圖9係實施形態之半導體晶片之主要部分之模式性剖視圖。
圖9所示之半導體晶片1包括:半導體基板10;設置於半導體基板10之上之含氮化鎵層30;設置於含氮化鎵層30之上之源極電極50;與源極電極50並排之汲極電極51;設置於源極電極50與汲極電極51之間之閘極電極52;及設置於半導體基板10下方之導電層55。於閘極電極52與含氮化鎵層30之間設置有閘極絕緣膜53。半導體晶片1為HEMT(high electron mobility transistorm,高電子遷移率電晶體)。
含氮化鎵層30具有:含氮化鋁層31、含氮化鋁鎵層32、含氮化鎵層33及含氮化鋁鎵層34。
源極電極50及汲極電極51係與含氮化鋁鎵層34歐姆接觸。閘極絕緣膜53包含氮化矽膜(Si3N4)、氧化矽膜(SiO2)、氧化鋁(Al2O3)中之任一種。
含氮化鋁層31與含氮化鋁鎵層32係作為HEMT之緩衝層而發揮功能。含氮化鎵層33係作為HEMT之載子移動層而發揮功能。含氮化鋁鎵層34係作為HEMT之阻擋層而發揮功能。含氮化鋁鎵層34係非摻雜或n型之AlXGa1-XN(0<X≦1)層。於含氮化鎵層33內之含氮化鎵層33與含氮化鋁鎵層34之界面附近產生二維電子。此種半導體晶片1亦包含於實施形態中。
再者,本說明書中所謂「氮化物半導體」,總體而言,包括成為BxInyAlzGa1-x-y-zN(0≦x≦1,0≦y≦1,0≦z≦1,x+y+z≦1)之化學式中使組成比x、y及z於各自範圍內進行變化之全部組成之半導體。 又,「氮化物半導體」進而包括上述化學式中進一步包含N(氮)以外之V族元素之半導體、進一步包含為了控制導電型等各種物性而添加之各種元素之氮化物半導體、及進一步包含非刻意含有之各種元素之氮化物半導體。
於上述實施形態中,所謂表述為「部位A設置於部位B之上」之情況下之「之上」,除部位A與部位B接觸,且在部位B之上設置有部位A之情況外,亦有以如下含義使用之情況,即部位A不與部位B接觸,而於部位B之上方設置有部位A之情況。又,「部位A設置於部位B之上」存在如下情況,即亦適用於使部位A與部位B反轉從而部位A位於部位B之下之情況;或部位A與部位B橫向排列之情況。其原因在於:即便使實施形態之半導體裝置旋轉,於旋轉前後半導體裝置之構造不發生改變。
