Description

多形體銅柱凸塊接合結構及其凸塊形成方法Polymorph copper pillar bump joint structure and bump forming method thereof

本發明係有關於半導體裝置之凸塊結構,特別係有關於一種多形體銅柱凸塊接合結構及其凸塊形成方法。The present invention relates to a bump structure for a semiconductor device, and more particularly to a polymorph copper pillar bump bonding structure and a bump forming method thereof.

早期的覆晶接合是利用銲球凸塊(solder ball)進行晶片接合,可行之凸塊間距在130微米(um)。近來有人提出以銅柱凸塊(Copper pillar bumps,CPB)作為晶片接合的微接點(micro contact),可行之凸塊間距在70微米(um),以供無重配置線路層設計之晶片、TSV晶片堆疊或其它微間距凸塊3D等晶片之接合應用。當凸塊間距需要進一步縮小時,便會有銲料橋接(solder bridge)與底部填充膠空隙(underfill void)、基板線路設計困難等問題。Early flip-chip bonding was performed using solder ball bonding, with a possible bump pitch of 130 microns (um). Recently, it has been proposed to use copper pillar bumps (CPB) as wafer-bonded micro contacts. The possible bump spacing is 70 micrometers (um) for wafers without reconfigured circuit layer design. Bonding applications for wafers such as TSV wafer stacks or other micro pitch bumps 3D. When the bump pitch needs to be further reduced, there are problems such as solder bridge and underfill void, and difficulty in designing the substrate wiring.

如第1圖所示,一種習知銅柱凸塊接合結構300係主要包含一晶片310以及下方接合之基板350。該晶片310係具有複數個銲墊311,一表面保護層313之複數個開孔314係顯露該些銲墊311。複數個凸塊下金屬墊320係形成於該些銲墊311上。複數個銅柱凸塊330係接合於該些凸塊下金屬墊320上。該些銅柱凸塊330係為圓柱體或多角柱體,該些銅柱凸塊330供設置銲料340之接合面333係相等於該些銅柱凸塊330之底覆蓋面積。而該基板 350之上表面351係設有複數個凸塊接墊352並覆蓋一銲罩層353,該銲罩層353係具有一相當於晶片尺寸之開窗354,以顯露該複數個凸塊接墊352。銲料340係焊接至該些凸塊接墊352,以達到該晶片310在該基板350之接合。當該些銅柱凸塊330之間距被要求進一步縮小時,銲料340容易溢流並橋接至鄰近銅柱凸塊330或鄰近凸塊接墊352而造成電性短路,並且,底部填充膠也難以填滿該些銅柱凸塊330間之空隙,而產生膠空隙。特別是當銅柱凸塊之間距小於60微米時,晶片接合良率將明顯的降低。As shown in FIG. 1, a conventional copper stud bump bonding structure 300 mainly includes a wafer 310 and a substrate 350 bonded below.

A plurality of copper stud bumps 330 are bonded to the under bump metal pads 320. The copper stud bumps 330 are cylindrical or polygonal cylinders, and the joint faces 333 of the copper stud bumps 330 for the solder 340 are equal to the bottom cover areas of the copper stud bumps 330. And the substrate The upper surface 351 of the 350 is provided with a plurality of bump pads 352 and covers a solder mask layer 353. The solder mask layer 353 has a window 354 corresponding to the size of the wafer to expose the plurality of bump pads 352. . Solder 340 is soldered to the bump pads 352 to achieve bonding of the wafer 310 at the substrate 350. When the distance between the copper pillar bumps 330 is required to be further reduced, the solder 340 easily overflows and bridges to the adjacent copper pillar bumps 330 or adjacent to the bump pads 352 to cause an electrical short circuit, and the underfill is also difficult. The gap between the copper stud bumps 330 is filled to create a glue gap. Especially when the distance between the copper stud bumps is less than 60 microns, the wafer bonding yield will be significantly reduced.

The under bump metal pads 120 are formed on the wafer 110 by techniques such as physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition, or sputtering of an integrated circuit process and wafer level etching operations. The under bump metal pads 120 may be a multi-layer metal deposition layer, which may be made of titanium copper, tungsten copper or titanium nickel vanadium. Generally, the under bump metal pad 120 has a thickness of 0.5 to 8 micrometers, that is, is not equal to or greater than 10 micrometers, that is, less than one tenth of the height of the copper pillar bumps 130, and includes at least one layer. A barrier material different in material from the copper stud bumps 130.

該些銅柱凸塊130係設置於該些銲墊111上,每一銅柱凸塊130係由同材質之一柱底層131與一窄化柱身132所組成。該銅柱凸塊130之材質係可為銅或銅合金。在一具體運用中,該些銅柱凸塊130之間距係可小於60微米。該些柱底層131係接合至該些凸塊下金屬墊120,通常該些柱底層131之厚度係可大於該些凸塊下金屬墊120之厚度,以提供該些銅柱凸塊130之底部同材質之較佳應力承受力,而改善習知銅柱凸塊之底部斷裂問題。通常該些柱底層131之厚度係介於該些銅柱凸塊130之高度百分之十至百分之五十之間。並且,每一窄化柱身132係具有一小於對應銲墊111之接合面133。在本實施例中,該些窄化柱身132之該些接合面133之面積係可小於該些柱底層 131之底覆蓋面積(footprint)之二分之一,可減少該些銲料140在該些第二開孔154的溢流量。該些柱底層131之底覆蓋面積係為該些柱底層131覆蓋於該些凸塊下金屬墊120之面積。在本實施例中,該些柱底層131之底覆蓋面積係相同於該些凸塊下金屬墊120。在此所指該些銅柱凸塊130之高度係為由該表面保護層113至該接合面133之凸塊垂直距離。The copper stud bumps 130 are disposed on the pads 111, and each of the copper stud bumps 130 is composed of a pillar bottom layer 131 of the same material and a narrowed pillar 132. The material of the copper stud bumps 130 may be copper or a copper alloy. In a specific application, the distance between the copper stud bumps 130 may be less than 60 microns. The pillar bottom layer 131 is bonded to the under bump metal pads 120. Generally, the pillar bottom layer 131 may have a thickness greater than the thickness of the under bump metal pads 120 to provide the bottom of the copper pillar bumps 130.

The bottom cover area of the pillar bottom layer 131 is such that the pillar bottom layer 131 covers the area of the under bump metal pad 120. In this embodiment, the bottom cover areas of the pillar bottom layers 131 are the same as the bump under metal pads 120. The height of the copper stud bumps 130 is the vertical distance from the surface protection layer 113 to the bumps of the joint surface 133.

第3圖係繪示該些銅柱凸塊130多種可能形狀之上視示意圖。依產品的不同需求,由該些銅柱凸塊130之窄化柱身132形成之該些接合面133與該些柱底層131之底覆蓋面積可以有不同的形狀變化。如第3圖(A)所示,該些柱底層131係可為較大直徑之圓形,該些窄化柱身132之該些接合面133係可為較小直徑之圓形。如第3圖(B)所示,該些柱底層131係可為較大直徑之圓形,該些窄化柱身132之該些接合面133係可為較小長度與寬度之四方形。如第3圖(C)所示,該些柱底層131係可為較大長度與寬度之四方形,該些窄化柱身132之該些接合面133係可為較小直徑之圓形。如第3圖(D)所示,該些柱底層131係可為較大長度與寬度之四方形,該些窄化柱身132之該些接合面133係可為較小長度與寬度之四方形。在一理想條件下,無論該些柱底層131與該些接合面133之形狀為何,該些柱底層131係大於下方接合基板150之銲罩層153之對應第二開孔154,該些接合面133係小於下方接合基板150之銲罩層153之對應第二開孔154,而能達到最佳的功效。FIG. 3 is a schematic top view showing various possible shapes of the copper stud bumps 130. Depending on the requirements of the product, the joint surfaces 133 formed by the narrowed columns 132 of the copper studs 130 and the bottom cover areas of the pillar bottom layers 131 may have different shape changes. As shown in FIG. 3(A), the pillar bottom layers 131 may be circular with a larger diameter, and the joint surfaces 133 of the narrowed pillars 132 may be circular with a smaller diameter. As shown in FIG. 3(B), the pillar bottom layers 131 may be circular with larger diameters, and the joint surfaces 133 of the narrowed pillars 132 may be squares of smaller length and width. As shown in FIG. 3(C), the pillar bottom layers 131 may be squares of a larger length and a width, and the joint surfaces 133 of the narrowed pillars 132 may be circular with a smaller diameter. As shown in FIG. 3D, the pillar bottom layer 131 can be a square of a larger length and a width, and the joint surfaces 133 of the narrowed pillars 132 can be four of a smaller length and a width. Square. Under an ideal condition, regardless of the shape of the pillar bottom layer 131 and the joint surfaces 133, the pillar bottom layers 131 are larger than the corresponding second openings 154 of the solder mask layer 153 of the lower bonding substrate 150, the joint surfaces. The 133 is smaller than the corresponding second opening 154 of the solder mask layer 153 of the lower bonding substrate 150, and the best effect can be achieved.

此外,該些銲料140係形成於該些接合面133上而不形成於該些柱底層131。該些銲料140之材質係具體可為錫銀等無鉛銲劑,亦可為有鉛銲劑。該些銲料140 之體積用量應不可使該些銲料140在迴焊時形成球狀,至多為半圓弧面。在該些接合面133之面積限制下,該些銲料140之體積用量將大幅的降低。較佳地,該些窄化柱身132之該些接合面133係可形成有一阻障層134,例如鎳,表面可閃鍍一金層,用以防止因該些銲料140對該些窄化柱身132的金屬擴散而產生微小化柱身接點的脆化現象。In addition, the solders 140 are formed on the bonding surfaces 133 and are not formed on the pillar bottom layers 131. The material of the solder 140 may specifically be a lead-free solder such as tin silver or a lead solder. The solder 140 The volume should not be such that the solder 140 forms a spherical shape during reflow, at most a semi-circular surface. Under the area limitation of the joint faces 133, the volume of the solder 140 will be greatly reduced. Preferably, the bonding surfaces 133 of the narrowing columns 132 are formed with a barrier layer 134, such as nickel, and a gold layer is flash-plated on the surface to prevent the soldering of the solder 140. The metal of the column body 132 is diffused to cause an embrittlement of the micro-column joint.

該基板150係作為該晶片110之承載物,該基板150係可為小型印刷電路板、陶瓷線路板、軟性電路板、虛晶片或是晶圓。該基板150係具有一上表面151,該上表面151係設有複數個第一線路段152並覆蓋有一銲罩層153,該銲罩層153係具有複數個第二開孔154,以顯露該些第一線路段152,該些第二開孔154係小於該些柱底層131之底覆蓋面積且大於該些接合面133,該些接合面133係對準於該些第二開孔154內,以使該些銲料140接合至該些第一線路段152,且不會溢流到鄰近的柱狀凸塊與鄰近的第一線路段152。The substrate 150 serves as a carrier for the wafer 110. The substrate 150 can be a small printed circuit board, a ceramic circuit board, a flexible circuit board, a dummy wafer, or a wafer. The substrate 150 has an upper surface 151 which is provided with a plurality of first line segments 152 and is covered with a solder mask layer 153. The solder mask layer 153 has a plurality of second openings 154 to expose the substrate 150. The first line segments 152 are smaller than the bottom cover areas of the pillar bottom layers 131 and larger than the joint surfaces 133. The joint surfaces 133 are aligned with the second openings 154. So that the solder 140 is bonded to the first line segments 152 and does not overflow to the adjacent stud bumps and the adjacent first line segments 152.

第4圖係繪示該基板150之局部上表面示意圖。較佳地,如第2及4圖所示,該基板150之該上表面151係可更設有至少一第二線路段155,其係位於該些第一線路段152之間且被該銲罩層153覆蓋,使得該基板150之該上表面151成為高密度線路佈局並且該些銲料140不會沾黏到該第二線路段155。FIG. 4 is a schematic view showing a part of the upper surface of the substrate 150. Preferably, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the upper surface 151 of the substrate 150 may further include at least one second line segment 155 between the first line segments 152 and soldered. The cover layer 153 is covered such that the upper surface 151 of the substrate 150 becomes a high density line layout and the solder 140 does not stick to the second line segment 155.

在一較佳實施型態中,該些窄化柱身132之高度係可大於該些柱底層131之厚度並且大於該銲罩層153之厚度,藉以提供更大的凸塊間隙填膠空間,以利底部填充膠之填入。並且,該些柱底層131之厚度係可介於該些銅柱凸塊130之高度百分之十至百分之五十之間,可達成該些窄化柱身132至該些第二開孔154之水平間隙小於該 些柱底層131至該銲罩層153之垂直間隙,可防止該些銲料140被擠出而沾附於該些柱底層131。In a preferred embodiment, the height of the narrowed pillars 132 may be greater than the thickness of the pillar bottom layers 131 and greater than the thickness of the solder mask layer 153, thereby providing a larger bump gap filling space. Fill in with Eli's underfill. Moreover, the thickness of the pillar bottom layer 131 may be between ten and fifty percent of the height of the copper pillar bumps 130, and the narrowed pillars 132 to the second openings may be achieved. The horizontal gap of the hole 154 is smaller than the The vertical gap between the pillar bottom layer 131 and the solder mask layer 153 prevents the solder 140 from being extruded and adhered to the pillar bottom layers 131.

在本具體結構中,該些柱底層131間之間隙係可小於該些柱底層131之同向剖切寬度之二分之一,該些窄化柱身132間之間隙係大於該些窄化柱身132之同向剖切寬度,故該些銅柱凸塊130可符合更先進微間距銅柱凸塊排列需求。該些銅柱凸塊130之間距係為其中一銅柱凸塊130之中心點至另一鄰近銅柱凸塊130之中心點之水平距離,即等於一個柱底層131間之間隙加上一個柱底層131之同向剖切寬度之和,亦等於一個窄化柱身132間之間隙加上一個窄化柱身132之同向剖切寬度之和。因此,當該些銅柱凸塊130之間距係為不大於60微米(um)時,該些柱底層131之同向剖切寬度可達40微米(um),該些柱底層131間之間隙係可縮近至不大於20微米(um);並且,該些窄化柱身132之同向剖切寬度可達30微米(um),該些窄化柱身132間之間隙係可擴大至不小於30微米(um)。In the specific structure, the gap between the pillar bottom layers 131 may be less than one-half of the same cutting width of the pillar bottom layers 131, and the gap between the narrowed pillars 132 is greater than the narrowing. The pillars 132 are cut to the same width, so the copper pillar bumps 130 can meet the requirements of more advanced micro-pitch copper pillar bumps. The distance between the copper pillar bumps 130 is the horizontal distance from the center point of one copper pillar bump 130 to the center point of another adjacent copper pillar bump 130, which is equal to the gap between one pillar bottom layer 131 plus one pillar. The sum of the same cut widths of the bottom layer 131 is also equal to the sum of the gap between the narrowed columns 132 and the same cut width of the narrowed columns 132. Therefore, when the distance between the copper pillar bumps 130 is not more than 60 micrometers (um), the same direction of the pillar bottom layer 131 can be up to 40 micrometers (um), and the gap between the pillar bottom layers 131 The narrowing column 132 can be folded to a width of 30 micrometers (um), and the gap between the narrowed columns 132 can be expanded to Not less than 30 microns (um).

因此,本發明之第一具體實施例提供之一種多形體銅柱凸塊接合結構100,可使該些銅柱凸塊130之間更容易填入底部填充膠且不會有該些銲料140橋接至鄰近銅柱凸塊130與鄰近第一線路段152之問題,故晶片接合良率可提高,本結構特別適用於銅柱凸塊之間距小於60微米之微間距銅柱凸塊接合結構。此外,更可改善外應力集中於習知銅柱凸塊底部所引起的凸塊斷裂,並使該基板150之該上表面151具有更多空間作高密度線路佈局。Therefore, the first embodiment of the present invention provides a polymorph copper pillar bump bonding structure 100, which makes it easier to fill the underfill between the copper pillar bumps 130 without bridging the solder 140. The problem of wafer bonding yield can be improved by the problem of adjacent copper pillar bumps 130 and adjacent first wiring segments 152. This structure is particularly suitable for micro-pitch copper pillar bump bonding structures with copper pillar bumps less than 60 micrometers apart. In addition, the external stress is further concentrated on the bump breakage caused by the bottom of the conventional copper stud bump, and the upper surface 151 of the substrate 150 has more space for the high-density line layout.

As shown in FIG. 5A, a wafer 110 is provided having a plurality of pads 111 disposed on a semiconductor layer 112 and covered on the semiconductor layer 112. There is a surface protective layer 113 having a plurality of first openings 114 for exposing the pads 111; and as shown in FIG. 5A, using physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition, or sputtering The plating method forms an under bump metal layer 121 on the pads 111 and the surface protection layer 113. As shown in FIG. 5B, a first photoresist 10 is formed on the under bump metal layer 121, and the first photoresist 10 has a plurality of first lights by photolithography or exposure development. The apertures 11 are sized and positioned to correspond to the pillar bottom layers 131 that are to be formed.

Each of the copper stud bumps 130 is composed of a pillar bottom layer 131 of the same material. It is composed of a narrowed column 132. Since the pillar bottom layer 131 can replace the under bump metal layer as a plating seed layer in the process, the metal diffusion problem between the copper pillar bumps 130 and the pads 111 of the wafer 110 is not serious. Therefore, the under bump metal pad can be omitted, and the thickness of the pillar bottom layer 131 is specifically limited to be between ten and fifty percent of the height of the copper pillar bumps 130.

該晶片110係具有複數個銲墊111,該些銲墊111係設置於一半導體層112上,並且該半導體層112上係覆蓋有一表面保護層113,該表面保護層113係具有複數個第一開孔114,以顯露該些銲墊111。The wafer 110 has a plurality of pads 111. The pads 111 are disposed on a semiconductor layer 112.

Each of the narrow pillars 132 has a bonding surface 133 smaller than the corresponding pads 111. The thickness of the pillar bottom layer 131 is between ten and fifty percent of the height of the copper pillar bumps 130.

該些銲料140係形成於該些接合面133上而不形成於該些柱底層131。該基板150係具有一上表面151,該上表面151係設有複數個第一線路段152並覆蓋有一銲罩層153,該銲罩層153係具有複數個第二開孔154,以顯露該些第一線路段152,該些第二開孔154係小於該些柱底層131之底覆蓋面積且大於該些接合面133,該些接合面133係對準於該些第二開孔154內,以使該些銲料140 接合至該些第一線路段152。The solders 140 are formed on the bonding surfaces 133 and are not formed on the pillar bottom layers 131. The substrate 150 has an upper surface 151 which is provided with a plurality of first line segments 152 and is covered with a solder mask layer 153. The solder mask layer 153 has a plurality of second openings 154 to expose the substrate 150. The first line segments 152 are smaller than the bottom cover areas of the pillar bottom layers 131 and larger than the joint surfaces 133. The joint surfaces 133 are aligned with the second openings 154. To make the solder 140 Bonded to the first line segments 152.
